Pottery Making Basic Techniques - Knocking on Centre

I have trouble believing that someone who specializes in ancient and medieval pottery could be thought of as "old fashioned!"😄 That was actually comforting to watch.

Would they actually use a turning cutting tool like that in Roman times or perhaps rather some kind of knife?

[@PottedHistory]

It's possible that a knife might have been used occasionally, but they are difficult to keep steady, and we do have looped turning tools from sites in Gaul.
