This thread should probably have been started with some of Emory's very clean and highly functional arrowheads and blades. He has been knapping for 30 of his 35 years.
Both Emory and his father Cecil have taken big game with their own knapped points mounted on wooden arrows.
When Cecil started knapping, he thinks there were about 12 people in the United States practicing the craft.
Both of these men have worked with many archeologists and paleontologists doing research on ancient man in the region they live in.
Southeastern Oregon has sites that science is dating the presence of humans back to or past 14,000 years before present.
It's the science guys that benefit from Cecil and Emory's intimate knowledge of the Oregon High Desert and the resources it contains.
