Thank you!

It is October 26th. 8 months after you posted this video and the picture of the point you made still impresses me when I see it. The point remains one of the most pleasing to look at. You have a talent when it comes to “thinning” a piece of stone, knowing when to stop so there is enough thickness to allow a beautiful flake scar pattern and serrated edge to be made. Such a classic Pine Tree.

[@Bradmoore1979]

Thanks so much!! Sorry I missed your comment.

[@wonderbubbles4092]

You are great at showing what you're looking at and what happens with each flake, thank you. I also love your assistant, she's adorable. I also like that you're not afraid of longer videos. Most knapping channels would break this into 4 or 5 videos and forget to make a play list out of it. I really appreciate not having to search repeatedly to see the whole process. All in all, you got a new sub.😄 P.S. Happy Birthday 🎂

I wonder if the native's spent as much time with solely bone and stone tools? It's an art either way.

That thing is big enough to be a spear tip and you call that an arrowhead?

[@Bradmoore1979]

Actually I think most of these were used as knives but the reason I include the word arrowhead is so the algorithm can recognize it.
