John, put this in the "Knappers Stump" at the bottom of the main board.

Justin Cook is the most talented knapper that I've ever seen. I don't think he's a part of this site so you may want to support someone here but his work is pretty outstanding and he can do lots of styles/shapes and higher end techniques if you desire. If I recall correctly he charges ~$20-30 per inch depending on the work requested.

First post Gunnar, way to get after it. If you don't find what you need I know a guy in Pendleton that might show you how to knap your own.
