Check this amazing piece of flint out. I’m about to open up a very fine piece of flint, not every day you will see a stone like this.

You are so such a master of the art of flint napping, but what is exquisite is ability to provide a story, history and and articulate what you are doing as you are surgically revealing what you set out to create from stone....Wow!!!!...just amazing...thank you!!!

This was wonderful, Will! Your narrative and exhibition of the craft was quite special. You have a way of bringing the remote past into the present giving folks the opportunity to see our world in a different way.

You don't need flint. Johnstone works really well and you can find those in modern dump sites. "John' stone... 'john' as in the loo or toilet. the ceramic of the tank/tank lid knaps quite well.

Glass also knaps pretty well. I've made some nice arrow heads from the bottoms of beer bottles. search for beer bottle arrow heads for vids on how to do it.

Catching up with with your latest vids Will after returning from my Highland's road trip. The Orkney's are a truly magical place that I most definitely have to visit again to explore some more. Was lucky enough to be there for the final few days of this year's dig at the Ness of Brodgar. WOW, amazing......... Unfortunately couldn't manage to see the tomb of the sea eagles but I'll save that for next time, great vids Will Cheers for your excellent content

Flint knapping rocks... 😃🤘 👍👍 Nice arrowhead Will. Question : Do you think it was a common skill all stoneage people development or might it have been that certain talented individuals would have been perhaps delegated the tasks of hunting equipment manufacturing whilst others might have specialised in hunting or clothing manufacturing etc?

Yeah - it would have been a valuable skill to have and given one a place in the tribe of high esteem considering how essential good arrowheads and sharp tools generally would have been...and how easily and often broken too they'd have been... There would have been no shortage of demand anyway 😆 The knappers probably were able to accumulate considerable wealth and control and influence - they were well off and their children might have had enough free time and opportunity to study the stars and experiment with other non-hunt related subjects which then may have led to henges and eventually to the stone circles and tumuli... There's a lot to be said for the power of connecting physically and mentally with material reality. Thanks for the lessons Will👍

Where do you get flint from? Do you buy it? Do you dig it out yourself? Also, another thing I was going to ask: All the tools you're using are prehistoric. Round stone, bit of antler. All apart from that tool you're using to do "pressure flaking". It has a copper tip. What would they have used back in the day? Cause I imagine they didn't have copper.
