1434 - No Talk - 9.25" (23.5cm) Danish Dagger Type I Flintknapping

[@daveanddanniejacobs9432]

Very few men on this planet earth are capable of making a Scandinavian blade like you made in this video. Absolutely you sir are one those few. Lost for words.

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

Thank you!

Yea I did I couldn’t contain myself. Seeing how jacked up the rock was we’re Sure your 75% magician

[@lairdhaynes1986]

Jack Crafty: "I'm not going to make anymore big blades" Proceeds to knap a 9" Danish dagger. 😆 . Well done! Had me a little on edge with that thickness in the middle but you worked through that mess like a champ. 👍👍

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

It makes me feel better when I say I'm not going to make long blades. Then when I do, it makes me feel better because I'm being sneaky.😁

[@phillockwood8414]

I watched it all. I could see you getting tired when you dropped the piece twice. The size of that piece made it the best pressure flaking video I’ve seen. That session was worth the work.

[@edaistrop8626]

Love that ringing sound

[@Adayelasdi]

I have some of that same stone and I cant seem to make anything out of it not to mention I have no idea what it is, of course I just started flintknapping. I cant seem to get the hang of it. i can drive flakes but none of them are what you would call big enough to make anything seems like. There ether too thick or two thin or two small, it is nerve wracking. You make it look so easy. I have been trying to make something for almost a month now and have made nothing but gravel. I did almost have a good shaped point but snapped it in half. One end was really heavy and trying to remove it did it. I watch your videos everyday trying to learn how to knapp but idk maybe I need a new hobby. Love your vids sir take care.

[@kenwintin3014]

Wow! What an amazing knife and amazing work. I see why you aren't fond of big blades, but you handled it so well. Thank you.

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

Big blades are the devil.

[@salvadorperales1979]

Man I thought you were gonna say 🤬something out loud at 1:18:23. I could feel that through the video. But no talk or a lot of talk I feel like I learn something from you with every video. Thank you for all the education. I wouldn’t have the new hobby without you. 👍🏻

[@ndoghouse6853]

Showtime! Ive been waiting for this one. Was good to meet you finally at the Brady KI. Theres not enough neolithic videos these days. I may start making some myself.

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

They are very intuitive and not complicated. The only difficult thing is to make sure they don't snap in half... like everything else.

[@ronaldcarbonneau77]

Got up and went to get a cup of coffee and started watching the video. I thought this is gonna be good. Long piece,big turtle back, not something I would do. I can see why this wasn't a yap knap video. Your strategy for making this is very informative and very skillful. You are without a doubt seriously skilled in the art. Don't have the words except to say very nice.👍

Danish Dagger! Not many would take that piece on. I'm going to have to call it a Masterpiece...done by a Master. Thanks!

[@seandalgetty5873]

Very nice. I love to see the Euro patterns. I told you about that Danish book on flint tools, right? Cheers, Sean

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

Yeah, I think I remember you telling me about it.

[@RelyeaRonnie]

Awesome work !!!

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

Thank you

[@aaronengland5622]

That's just as nice as the one Will Lord made. Nicer if you ask me. I think he used a glassy black flint. It might've been a grey spotted flint. I can't remember. Either way, I prefer the brown stone and it's gorgeous. Nice work.

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

Thank you

[@scottlaugher-flintknapping]

Will lords doesn't even come close to this work. If you're talking about the DD he smashes out of obsidian.... smashes being the word. This work is a different league to will lord.

[@johnmcclelndon7641]

Awesome video! Nice job

[@panzerlieb]

Wow! a danish dagger out of chert. You mad man,lol. Not exactly the most cooperative material is it? But you pulled it off. Once again an impressive display of skill by a master flint knapper.

Thanks

[@dwaynegriffin5835]

Very nice

[@daveanddanniejacobs9432]

Sorry I said Scandinavian. I don't know why I keep calling those blades that. I do realize it's a Danish blade. I had to correct myself. I think there actually is a blade called the Scandinavian blade. Please correct me if I wrong.

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

No worries. I'm not a stickler for exact names these days.

[@jimmartinette9655]

What is the material? I'm not very knowable on the subject, but I'm trying to lean. I'm a many great Grandson of OTzi. There's less than thirty of us that carry his DNA. I've been making bows and arrows long before I ever knew that I was related to him. There must be some of that carbon left in my brain, somewhere, because I'm fascinated by all of this.

[@KnapperJackCrafty]

The material is a variety of Costal Plains Chert from Georgia. You can buy this material from Jeff Head. Jeff Head Facebook Profile facebook.com/profile.php?id=100077372270590&mibextid=ZbWKwL
