Warren Warbrick hafts a Maori stone adze (toki)
In this video excerpt, Maori woodcarver and musician Warren Warbrick shows how he binds a small stone adze to an elbow handle to prepare one of his carving tools.
Warren is from the Rangitane tribe, whose territory surrounds the city of Palmerston North, New Zealand. His demonstrations were part of the ~Rock~Paper~Scissors stone adze making workshop at the Tiapapata Art Centre in Apia, Samoa, May 2024.
At this link you can view a 3D model of one of Warren's hafted toki:

Here you can view multiple images of a Maori adze hafted in a similar way. It was probably made in the early 1900s:

Abang the Orangutan makes a stone tool, a film by Dr Richard Wright, ca 1972
Просмотров 658Год назад
This film of Abang, an Indonesian Orangutang, was made by Dr Richard Wright in the early 1970s to explore the stoneworking capabilities of apes. His work was followed a decade later by the famous experiments with Kanzi, a captive bonobo. Special thanks to Richard for giving us permission to host this historically important video.

How hard can it be?
Просмотров 29Год назад
A common impression is that making stone tools is a simple matter of bashing two rocks together. While you might be able to make sharp splinters that way, the evolutionary history of stone tool-making is all about controlled stone flaking making the rock break how and where you want it to. This video shows a student's very first attempt at breaking a rock. He had received verbal instruction and...
Hard-hammer percussion flaking on a medium-sized core
Просмотров 76Год назад
In this video, a direct hard-hammer freehand percussion technique is used to strike flakes from a medium-sized silcrete core. The core is reduced bifacially, by striking flakes using a prior flake scar as the platform surface. The flakes are removed centripetally from around the periphery of the core, towards the centre. The flakes have sharp edges for use as cutting tools.

Very interesting
beautiful work and tool!
We use like this tool in India also
I'll bet the shavings would make great tinder.
Amazing ❤
I like how you speak, very calming. I would have a 10h video playing for the comforting sound of woodworking in the background while I am at my computer
Fia inu a se koko samoa! Malo lava capturing this. I have some to'i fafau but with metal now. My grandfather Sailivao Muaulu made them. Him and my father and his brothers used them to carve a paopao in NZ in the 80s.
Here for the Pink Floyd
But Wright selected and prepared the tools for the orangutan. Now take this orangutan to nature with just the box puzzle and let the orangutan solve it there. I very much doubt that the orangutan will succeed, nor will he apply this tool making skill in any other problem. At best bashing things with stones will be the best scenario.
But Apple selected and prepared the imac for the human. Now take this human to nature with just the computer chips, motherboard, casing and other parts and let the human solve it there. I very much doubt that the human will succeed, nor will he apply this computer building skill in any other problem. At best throwing everything away and go back to watching TV will be the best scenario.
