Re: Obsidian or Absurdium ?
Hi, All:
This thread reminds me of a long forgotten knife type, that I always wanted to acquire. I always wanted a complete knife, made from knapped flint, or obsidian. I have watched flint knappers in many parts of the USA, and Alaska, making knife blades, spear & arrow points, and other tools, and was amazed at their skills, and vowed to someday get a complete knife made, to complete my meager collection of Indian artifacts. Well, as so many plans do, that one fell by the wayside, and now that I'm too old to follow through with having a knife made, I'd still like to have one made. Any suggestions on what maker would be the best to deal with? Thanks.

Re: Obsidian or Absurdium ?
Is the Kenny Hull mentioned on this forum still making flint, and obsidian knives? I would like to have one made, but can't seem to find information on Kenny Hall, mentioned on this forum. Anyone know how to get in touch with him? Help needed for this old block headed "poop". Thanks.

Sut, go to ebay.com and search "obsidian" and it will bring up knives similar to mine and said to be made by "Kenny Hull".
