I have a grandson that when he found out I was tumbling stone has asked for a neckless of a stone arrow.
I just can't come up with the shape of what I think he wants.
I have this old photo in my head of one that I might of seen years ago.
I did try and find something using the words "arrow stone" =didn't find anything.
also what size should it be?
Thanks for any help,

Have him draw what he wants, just hope he doesn't get to creative with the notches. I can help you with arrowheads.

Here you go ... just made this template for you. Print it out, cut it out, trace it to your slab. I'd make it 1 1/2 - 2" long.  |

Here are a few I did, have a couple more shapes, if you are interested, I will send you one free. I just put a bail on hang it on a chain or I use stone chips, close to color of arrowhead string on wire, hang arrowhead in center. Terry  |
