Flint-Knapping: How to Make an Arrowhead from Coastal Plains Chert.

If you enjoy flint-knapping, THIS is the video for you. I take a large chunk of Alabama Coastal and reduce it into a nice Hardin point. Feel free to like & comment, and subscribe if you’d like to watch similar videos in the future.

This is awesome, tons to learn about more difficult stone like coastal.

[@alenglehart4020]

Yep very interesting and I wake up after you're done I go back 5 minutes And I'm satisfied

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

😂😂

[@general5104]

I enjoy-joyed that...I just wish I could watched you pressure flake it. The finished piece looked AWESOME. Thank you for your patience and wonderful skill ! You'd make a fair indian, as far as your skill-set goes! I'm subbing.

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

Thank you! I’ll have more videos posted soon with some Florida coral, start to finish

[@JohnMartin-ze8cf]

I think 30 minutes is optimal.....Thanks for doing these videos for us

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

Absolutely, happy to

[@jimdavidsmith4374]

Just found your site, really enjoyed watching you work. Love the way the rock flakes. The texture and color remind me of Burlington chert. I don't mind in fossils. I like rock with some individuality.

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

I appreciate that! The only time I don’t like inclusions is when they hinder the flakes (make step fractures) other than that they definitely give it some character. Thanks for watching!

[@jasonpercy184]

Looks like some Walton Park material. It took heat well.

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

From a different place but your right. same type of material as what you’d get there. Mid to High grade with inclusions.

[@luisgarces3525]

Great video buddy. Let's make a video rock hounding!

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

Sounds good to me!

[@terryjeter9566]

Lemme get some of that!

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

Haha! If I get more I’ll let you know!

[@channingadams4940]

Im ten min in i gotta finish it tomorrow

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

It’ll be here!

[@PikeSmike]

You’re material is a lot like stuff I find n use in parts of Missouri. Would that make it just Missouri costal? I like all the crazy fossils n crystalized fossils they add uniqueness.

[@billtr9317]

Nice work, any body sell this ,

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

This material? Not that I’m aware of

[@dicklambert5552]

I am a new 71one year old napper. You really explain what you are doing so your viewers can follow your plan for you piece. Thank you. By the way I live in Panama City and wondered where to get the Coral material in the Dothan area?

[@GulfCoastKnapping]

Dothan is just one place to find coastal, it’s all up and through South Georgia as well. A lot of the major outcrops are on private land, but many creeks have chert in them.

@@GulfCoastKnapping thank you.
