Flint Knapping an Atlatl point from Buffalo River

[@Teleman01]

I love this channel, you're like the Bob Ross of flint knapping!!!

[@justsomeguywithaboomerang1891]

When you talked about chess and really walked through multiple moves it really makes it easier to understand. This is my favorite knapping video so far.😊

From a clunky old piece of Rock to a beautiful piece of art. You are an artist my friend. Y'all think about it now. Stay vigilant!

[@stanwessler3623]

You sure have a ton of patience and awesome skills. I've knapped some rifle flints but never a stone point. Absolutely great tutorial on how it should be done. You are a master of your craft. I truly thank you for enlightening all of your followers. Keep up the great work and once again thank you so much.

I love your videos you actually inspired me to begin flint knapping and to begin creating primitive tools and weapons however finding rocks suitable for it is proving to be a challenge as there is mostly quartzite and nothing waxy or glassy however I have been making pine pitch glue in preparation for when I do find a good knapping rock and I encourage you to continue making many more videos in the future

[@piggyslayer1999]

Quartzite can be pretty decent if you use softer tools like wood billets, depending on the quartzite. Check out flintknappingtips he is awesome at working quartzite

Hey man, awesome video! I’m something of a novice flint knapper (more like rock smasher lol) but watching you work through a piece and explain out loud how you’re breaking down the process really helps. You’ve inspired me to try and make an atlatl point today!

[@benjamins7799]

Watching these videos has made me look at the artifacts I picked up in plowed fields as a kid in a different way. That chert sounds like CPM 3V of stone tools.

I LIKE THE SERIES

[@cutbaitkenny]

Ryan you commented on how hard it was to take a hog with an atlatl, do you have any thoughts on how the natives took white tail with one? Thanks for the video.

[@SasoriZert]

They most likely did as that hunting tool was common for most mid sized game like deer just be a matter if you can get close enough which comes down to luck and skill of the hunter

[@geoffpriestley7310]

I'm in the UK. I was near grimes graves. I found a flint shaped exactly like an arrow head about twice the size of a thumb nail, I thought it was a some thing kids had made up and threw it away .2 days later I saw the same thing in a museum it was 2 to 3000 years old😢

[@peacemaker-du4hz]

Ryan, I was just curious, is there really any difference between what the native American arrowheads look like than what would have been made by ancient man

[@marcioalves-alves8461]

Usando um pedaço de metal para desbastar fica fácil. Difícil é fazer com só com ferramentas primitivos
