Looked like a couple of those early in the video had some really thin little lines in them. Interesting... .

Heh, heh, heh - yeah - the fire, man!
We have a few pieces. That's what I was hoping might show up in this haul... .
For general cabbing you really can't beat a good mahogany, though, since it doesn't require direct light to be interesting.

Yes, we got to dig on three of his claims, plus a bit of education with the fire Obsidian.. He always has some great stories.. I bought a spear head from him, that he knapped from Silver Sheen Obsidian..
