    looking for Knapping rock

    Wife and I are in Bulverde for about 3 weeks. Would like to gather around two 5 gallon buckets of knapping rock to take home. Been to the Pederales and the Guadalupe rivers in the past. Any other areas I can look. Any help is appreciated and thanks.

        Not sure what types are down here. I picked up rock off the Pedernales in the past so that type would be good. I would go back to Frederickburg but the spots that I know are pretty picked over and it is hard to get permission from land owners on the river to gather a bucket. Thanks

          Flint or chert.

          Bisch

            Either rock would be good Bisch. I know Georgetown is good rock as is Pedernales.

                DRT: Texas has a lot of knapping rock. I know most is on private property and can understand property owners don't want strangers wondering around looking for it. There is a lot of knappable rock at landscape companies but that stuff is pretty tough to work. I eye ball rock around restaurants but my wife won't me pick any up, lol.

                      I’ve yet to find a rock good for knapping and I’ve slept on the ground many a time!

                            Could you post a pic of what you are looking for? I could probably pick some up for you and ship it to you if it's small stuff you are wanting.

                              BToutdoors. I really appreciate that offer but that's OK. A knapper knows what rock to pick up and what rock to leave. Again, thanks..
