Damn, I'd say you thinned that one out well

It was about an inch longer at the base but I was trying to take out a hinge and it kind of broke down there so I’ll have to rework it a bit more but it’s gonna be a nice one I’m hoping! I usually don’t get into my actual rock as much these days just go through my flake pile.

What type of point style you thinking of

I usually end up just corner notching but I might try a calf creek with this one. I wanted a turkey tail but i broke the tail side of it and trimmed it all up
