Flintnapping/ How to make glass arrowheads.

[lluukkaa1]

Is this arrowhead strong enough to shot into trees without breaking

[fuckyochair]

@lluukkaa1 it depends on the tree and glass

[lluukkaa1]

@fuckyochair let's say jeger maister vs. pine tree... would it stick in?

[fuckyochair]

@lluukkaa1 it would stick in a couple of times then brake, you would be better off shooting a peace of foam or a dirt pile

[lluukkaa1]

@fuckyochair thank you i'm from SLOVENIA btw

[fuckyochair]

@lluukkaa1 your welcome and im from the UNITED STATES lol

I see me ramming that pressure flaker under my finger nail.

[lynn96demon]

I don't have pressure flaker wat else could I use ?

[kjhammer120]

is that chalk that they are using to mark the glass?

[sheep1ewe]

@kjhammer120

Think it´s a wax or fat/oil crayon.

[WildyJohn]

@RAMEWE97 That may be true, but the bottom is also the flattest part of the bottle. With arrow heads, you need the least amount of concavity or else the path of the arrow will be thrown off.

[skaterookie]

@RAMEWE97 yea

[sjakshadow]

i cut with a pice of glass in my finger -_-''

[PeterPeli]

What is the bevel made of?

How heavy is it?

How long is "This long"...

Where is "This area here"?

What`s the pressure-flaker made of?

[warriorsfan12331]

[treedawg20]

I love your vidieos.Do you sell any of your glass points ?I would love to buy a few.Keep the vidieos comming.Thanks

[kennygtexas]

Great vid. Got to try this.

[tlartis]

Mine keep snapping in half! And i also the nail breaks the bottle bottom. This is obviously not a talent of mine.

[killplayboy]

Can't you just hit that Bottle on the Ground and watch out for some usable pieces for an Arrow?

That's the way I would do that.

[JaredRp]

Saw a guy use an arrowhead made from a bottle to kill a turkey on the discovery channel. It really makes me wanna throw a bottle bottom into my survival pack.

[stonereflex]

@JaredRp funny thing is that he could have killed the turkey with the bottle alone ;P lol but i guess if you get proficient at this then it could be a good survival skill... especially if you own a good bow...

[coloradocav]

thanks for the great vid, My glass arrow and spear heads are really improving since watching this demonstration. Mine will probably not be works of art like yours, but definetly field expedient. Thanks!

[NYmosVids]

[ahz123]

Wow she makes this look easy.

[kingcorey100]

wont this cut your hand

[lordfranz24]

doesn't glass arrowheads break?

[WhitepwrItalian1]

@lordfranz24 not the point, if your in the wild or something and have to make one, its strong enough to penetrate skin and kill an animal. Its not made to be shot at a wall.

[ishouldplayzelda]

@lordfranz24 

[riothero313]

@lordfranz24 Normally native people make them from obsidian in the wild. Obsidian is a type of hard volcanic glass that is found in nature. It is more durable than a beer bottle and can actually be sharpened sharper than a razor blade. It would slice through the tissue and organs of an animal like butter. It might break if it hit certain bone but the job would be done by then.

[BigWheelaCatPeelaYea]

Remember to use eye protection. Nothing worse than an eye injury.
