Amazing flint knapping skills. I loved every single minute watching you working.

That was indeed a great pleasure to watch, thank you.

You should show how sharp it is by demonstrating on a piece of paper or meat. Beautiful craftsmanship though. Well done

@@Chazie_ a fresh flake with a non-serrated edge probably could do that well. i’m imagining if you wanted that in a knife you could make a uni-facial square-ish blade and take off a tranchet flake, which basically means instead of pressure flaking you take off a flake from the entire edge all at once

Beautiful work my friend. Many people imagine humans were less intelligent in stone age times, but the quality and craftsmanship demonstrated in modern and ancient flintknapping is a delight to behold, and clearly shows their intelligence and skills were at least as high as ours. Some would say higher! 😀

It depends on era of the stoneage an who made the tools. Australopithecines were the first to make stone tools but they they weren't refined and have any design in ingenuity. Than with Homo. erectus seem to be more thought put into the tools and were biface shape (leaf/spear shaped). Then Homo. sapiens completely blew their predecessors out of the water with the tools they made so much more refined with increased ingenuity. Wish I could attache pictures for each.

@@spwan10 very true, I was referring to Homo Sapiens Sapiens, modern man. Definitely a development trail. its just that a lot of people make the automatic assumption about the 'stone age', that they were all dumb grunts, whereas the craftsmanship demonstrated in a lot of the flint and other stone tools shows a high degree of sophistication.

Do remember we are still stone age cavemen in psyche, as intelligent, and with the same instincts. We are far from being superior to those ancients in mind and body, all we have is a mountain to their meagre pile of tools and ideas. We still love to dig, forage and hunt, instincts that we have been afforded to adapt to arts and sciences so far removed from their origin that it is difficult to discern how and the why's of today.

Except he used a metal tool to make it. If you have metal then this is pointless. No stone age being could have done this using metal tool.

This is one of the greatest technologies to insure the continuation of our species. The Archeological record indicates that when we started making stone tools we had become meat eaters. Also, it is noteworthy that the size of our brains & skulls inlarged. We have been making stone tools for at least 3 million years. Truly amazing.

I might learn to do this! Hopefully, I can become good at this.

That is a superb flint specimen
