looks like one that I worked on for days, when I started it was about the size of a compact car door!

Sometimes i think they left those fractures on there for a reason. Put that one in your left hand and put thumb on stack see if that would not give you more cutting pressure. Here is one that feels good in the right hand.

Hinge fractures are a pain. When you get a nice assortment like that, then you get the priveledge of callin` it a stack. Stacks are called lots of other things too. Next time we`re all together in person, remind me and I`l tell ya`ll some of those names. I`ll even show you some ways to get them off, that work, sometimes...

Lookin` at that piece, I can feel the knappers frustration.

I doubt they were put there for a reason though.

I would say it`s a nice piece, but it really ain`t ! :eek: :rofl: ::gone:
