  • @rockstar7600 Hi, the grinding of the edges strengthens them so that the edger does not shatter when impacted.

  • So simple a caveman can do it ... uh why am I having such a hard time?

  • Thank´s master. I am so greatfull to you. I have gathert a lot off un-harden flint from the underground. - I will injoy making tools. - Your humble thankfull pupil.: Michael Lund Uldall Blansmosevej Lolland Danmark. ps. You are alvays wellcome in my home.

  • mui buen trabajo excelente

  • True art. Did you see that peice in the large stone you started with? I'd love to have just a few of the flakes you dropped.

  • Incredible work, thank you!

  • wow you must sell a lota points 2 aford youre home (LOL)

  • That was awesome, fantastic series and great work!

  • very impressive, I have a box full of crap I have made, I just recently found these videos online to help... 2 questions where did you get the stone< and would you have to start with a piece that large to get the end result.

  • Loved the series!

  • There for a while I thopught I was the only one who ground that much. I think its the key to successful knapping. One thin edge will jack up a point in a second!

    Awesome

    STEVE

  • I knapped some points about 20 years ago. at that time the internet hadn't been invented yet! I never knew about grinding. I can see what it does after watching you guys. I have a few nodules of Alabates flint from north of Amarillo, but have not done anything with them. probably should heat them before I try something big

  • Thank you for posting this series, I really enjoyed it. I hope I can get to your level someday. That dacite looks awesome. I wish we had it in NJ!

  • Nice clean biface Jim. Nice work. Welcome to youtube!

  • Thanks Marty. I did'nt use the Hippo tooth as much as I had planned, but hope to do a pure abo video later this summer....jim
