This is my first ever Pedernales Drill. The early stage Pedernales and the drill are both from Bell County, Texas. The Frio was recovered from Guadalupe County, Texas in 1954. I was only 3 when it was found by a rancher.
The Ensor is a beauty as well, here is one with a COA and a good looking Kinney Blade.

I always enjoy seeing your posts, thanks
 
Tortugas tend to be smaller than Kinneys, and the finishing isn't as crisp as a well sculped Kinney. Also where they come from has a lot to do with it. Tortuga density seems to me, is around south Texas. Areas close to the Rio Grande. (however that may just be my thought)
