I was wondering if anyone here snapped anything other than arrowheads or blades? Ornamental things, for necklaces etc? I'd be very interested in seeing some of this work.

I have made some arrowhead necklaces for people, also a letter opener, no pics though. Artwork in flint is common from prehistoric to modern times: Mayan eccentrics, strange Russian triangular thingies, eskimo flint men and in modern times, Brandon flint novelties, wall facings and letters. There are pics on this site of most of them.
