Is this still available slabcabber? I have been away for a while and just saw this. I have enough Flint Ridge chunks that I might be able to fill a box to trade if you are interested. They are pieces that have too many crystal pockets in to knap and would make good tumbling and small cutter pieces. Some is raw and some is heat treated and has some great color combinations. If I dont have enough to fill a box, I can add some of my local fossil chert pieces to round it out. Let me know and we can trade info. I will try to pm you a pic of the flint ridge I have if you are interested in a trade.

I had a full day today, but I will try to get a pic of my stuff to trade to you early in the morning. I have enough for a mfr box.

Just out of idle curiosity, why is this flint called "Georgetown" or more precisely, which Georgetown is it named after? I live in Georgetown, TX and the stuff grows wild around here. I'm just wondering if this is where it comes from. I know my friends from the NW like it when I send it to them.

Hello Sheltie, Yes this did come from Georgetown TX... A friend of mine that Knaps use to come over and get it by the truck load.
