The Arrowhead Dagger

[Jason Fry]

Over the past 6 or so months I've been chipping away at this project, finally finished. The Arrowhead Dagger has quite a few unique elements. The blade steel contains vintage Fred Bear broadheads and a stylized arrow down the center bar of the multibar blade. The guard has textured arrowhead quillons, and the frame is textured also. The handle scales are knapped Keokuk chert. This one will be at table 5K at Blade Show in Atlanta.

That's great! I learned to flintknap as a MUCH younger man and that's the first I've seen used for scales....your Damascus is superb.

I knapped a few dozen heads a few years ago, which was enough for me to learn to pay a professional for these scales lol.

Jim Cooper put in extra work to get the lighting to show the knapping just right!

See y’all at Atlanta, 5k.
