All about the basics of Blades and cores. Shows several examples of prehistoric blade cores from various parts of the world, followed by diagrams and explanations of the requirements for successful blade removals from cores. The diagrams and discussion are intended for students and those interested in blade core technology. Part 1 of this series may be a bit dry for most folks, but part 2 will show how to make a blade core preform using hammerstone percussion. Part 3 will demonstrate pressure blade removal. It is my hope that this series will inspire others to try their hand at blade core making and ultimately answer some of the questions about our past.
