Great you tuber.....I LOVE ARCHEOLOGY

Your videos Are Awsome!

I would suggest giving it a try, but be aware that flintknapping can be very addictive! I'd reccommend trying to pressure flake some glass into an arrowhead for starters, then if it clicks find a good antler billet or bopper and give percussion a try. Most of all, just have fun with it!

I am incredibly interested in knapping... I've probably watched 100+ videos, yours and others. What suggestions would you give to someone who is interested in getting involved in this ancient art form?

Thanks all. I got into flintknapping in the early 1980's after moving up to Oregon and finding arrowheads in my garden. Started collecting points and studying them. Many of the finer ones inspried me to learn how they were made. Been hooked on breaking rock ever since!

seriously ,,your incredable wow ,,awesome artwork,,i would like to know how you wee turned on to the napping

Hi Jim,
We haven't meet but I've admired your work for years. This is Geno from Reno. I used to owner Stone Age Trading Co.
Excellent notching. While in Quartezite Randy Beach was teaching me the methods and what not to do. Well the what not to do part always seemed to get in the way. LOL
I haven't touched a rock in 2 years. Shame on me, but will get back into it this spring.

Nowt really to add, you're a much better knapper than me. Just wanted to say great vids, I watched all of them. Thanks for going to all the trouble to put them up. Learn't a lot.

P.S. really jealous of your Dacite supply, lovely stuff. Reallly rare here in the UK.
