That's a running joke in the knife making community as well, "knife makers dont make mistakes, we just make smaller knives." 🤣😂

Congratulations on the recent hunt and discoveries! Can't wait to make my first moose antler billit from a yearling shed I found last year.

I gotta be honest, when I first heard you say "we inspire" in your intro, I thought "this guy really likes to boast. But man, do I regret ever thinking that! I really am inspired! Your skill is amazing, your dedication is incredible. I found you channel today and I haven't watched another channel the whole day! I'm literally BINGE watching! Don't worry about the length of the videos. It's amazing to watch you work. If I lived in Florida I'd love to be your apprentice. I'd love to flintnap along with you, just chatting and learning. I wish you all the success in the world. Keep up the good work my friend! PS: please do more videos where you butcher and cook the animal.

Thanks for this video so much! You have taught me majority of my primitive skills, and I hope I learn even more from you as I get older!

Your explanation of the mechanics of flaking is incredible. I had no idea about all of the prep for flake removal.

Lol! That was the main reason I wanted to watch the video. I wanted to see how he fluted the middle. I'm glad I stuck around. I wish I had that premium grade of stone.

I tend to like the brief parts of your videos in which you just KNAP and don't jabber so much. You're probably the best knapper I've ever seen, and your knowledge of the old ways is very impressive. But don't make the mistake of thinking that if you are talking, you are teaching.

Hey Ryan, just want to say I love and learn so much from your shows. I greatly appreciate what you do here and sharing your knowledge!!! One question Have you thought about doing flint knapping fridays live?

You have taught me so much

Excelent video, thanks.

Thank you for your Videos you are an inspiration and good job on your hunt what's next a rein deer or moose

I heard a tip for getting obsidian or dacite chips and dust off without them digging in from Patrick Blank the other day, by using a small whisk broom. I use one I made from pine needles....just crush the ends to soften them up.

beautifully done

When you attach the point to the shaft that comes off, is that a solid piece of wood or is it still a piece of rivercane?? I really enjoy watching you make a point and I like it when you take this kind of time and patience to make one. That one turned out gorgeous. Thanks for the video and stay vigilant!

The foreshaft is usually made from a piece or f hardwood.

How can you have 171k subscribers, and only 137 likes? Let's go people, it's time to sparkle and hit the 👍

Why do you not like Clovis as much, it is really what caught my interest into knapping

Where in FL do you live? You mentioned Pasco in an earlier video. Dade city/Brooksville area. I'm in the Tarpon area.

Question . Do the yellow jackets carry the dirt away from nest ? Here anyways ive never seen a pile of dirt that they excavated to make room for nest .

wow

I love this channel, really good video 😃 Do you have any tips for good stone supplier in Europe ? I head that can be problems when you order from US to Europe + the price for shipping 50+ kg can be high

I have a large chunk (around a pound)of coke bottle glass that had been melted at the plant and dumped out to cool. Can it be used for napping?

Rock on Huntprimitive ✊ You should put up videos on Rumble as well. Yt is good for stuff like this but is scary tyrannical about truth and reality when it comes to news, politics, and culture. There’s an effort to build up around yt and make them go the way of MySpace. Make sure you’re set up in other places.

Rumble doesn’t pay you I don’t think

I ordered a broken Clovis base, an unfluted Clovis and a couple of finished Clovis points from Lithics Casting Lab. The broken base reveals a nipple platform, located bias to one side of the basal end. The other yet to be fluted Clovis point has a very pronounced nipple. A “platform” bias to one side is just a platform below centreline. But a flake removed on a point with “convex” cross-section will see the flake run in the longitudinal direction. It’s just a given. Even in your video, you had difficulty NOT removing a longitudinal flake. A more Convex “thicker cross-section, allows higher energy strike and a longer, deeper Flute. Folsom is done with a flatter cross-section, with a wider nipple. So, what is a Caribou Clovis? Is it just a a variant of a Clovis with a more “pointed” distal end?

have you seen the meat eater episode they just put out where they use a folsom point on an arrow to kill a bear? i thought it was an odd choice of point for bow hunting but it worked i guess.

👍

Question. I was wondering after watching the Clovis hunt documentary about penetration on a mastodon or mammoth. Putting all historical points aside. If you invented a form to take a cape buffalo, or elephant with an atlatl what would that point look like?

Would doing this kind of exercise help understand the evolution of the points used by ancient man?

Also. If you were approached with an offer to have a all paid trip to hunt cape buffalo "aka. Black Death" with an atlatl would you do it?

Do you sell flint? Sir
