Mathsr: Just curious: Where on earth does a guy from Georgia go to source obsidian?
I have to order it. But still, it isn't all that expensive. I can sell a few points made into necklaces and easily cover the cost of 25 pounds of obsidian. Missouri Trading Company Is the most reliable place I have found to get obsidian so far.
Most of the flint in Georgia is hours away from me and a pain to work. The Georgia butterscotch flint makes a very attractive point, but can have a lot of faults and inclusions in the rock. I have found that obsidian is easy to work, has very few faults or inclusions and makes an attractive point or blade. I guess I'll keep on ordering it.
