Incredibly beautiful, all of them. The wolf tracks are such a beautiful detail, but the turquoise ones are really stunning.

Pretty sharp things!!
So I never found the 'knapping' pile at Glass Butte until the second time I went there...afterwards I found videos online and watched a ton since, 1) I couldn't believe people still made blades like that, & 2) if what knappers left behind was that pile (of which I wanted to take EVERYTHING home from) they must be make the most fabulously lovely blades ever seen on Earth.
And here you are. With stone paw prints for the bonus!

Looks great. Very unique in my opinion and yes, the foot-prints make them extra special.
Hi there Ralf, welcome back. Lets see some of your fantastic creations again.
