russy and me

larson1951 · Jul 27, 2011

russy helped me knock some weeds down this afternoon
when we finished we shut the tractors off and took a short but very worthwhile and rewarding walk
first a little KRF point along with a broke piece of bracelet made from elk antler
the bigger piece is the piece of elk antler that is left over when the antler is split and made into bracelets' it is hard to find that piece although we have found 5 or 6 over the last several years
then a broke point with several notches
some blades,scrapers, etc and a neat little bone awl
russy found that neat little scoria bead and was so fired up that he did the nature dance!

That left over split piece of antler is interesting.

Nice finds once again lars. Nice variety, and different, I really like the bead and notched point, I wonder if that type of notching was ver effective or not, because it doesn't seem like there are many posted on this forum.

And either you post a picture of russy doing the nature dance, or leave it up to our imaginations, 'cause I have an image of two farmers in overalls linking arms and twirling around in the middle of a hot sunny soy bean field :laughing9:

Steve in the 12th photo I am not sure who's hand it is in, but the hand holding the scoria bead the small blade just to the left of the broken point base what kind of material is the blade made from is that patinated TRSS or what is it, it's a nice looking little blade ?
