@@Chazie_ a fresh flake with a non-serrated edge probably could do that well. i’m imagining if you wanted that in a knife you could make a uni-facial square-ish blade and take off a tranchet flake, which basically means instead of pressure flaking you take off a flake from the entire edge all at once
Beautiful work my friend. Many people imagine humans were less intelligent in stone age times, but the quality and craftsmanship demonstrated in modern and ancient flintknapping is a delight to behold, and clearly shows their intelligence and skills were at least as high as ours. Some would say higher! 😀
It depends on era of the stoneage an who made the tools. Australopithecines were the first to make stone tools but they they weren't refined and have any design in ingenuity. Than with Homo. erectus seem to be more thought put into the tools and were biface shape (leaf/spear shaped). Then Homo. sapiens completely blew their predecessors out of the water with the tools they made so much more refined with increased ingenuity. Wish I could attache pictures for each.
@@spwan10 Dead right buddy! Even pre tech we were a clever beastie! In fact, back then if we had been techy enough to invent something as long lasting as plastic, we were way to smart to use it once and then throw it in the ocean like we do today!
@@spwan10 very true, I was referring to Homo Sapiens Sapiens, modern man. Definitely a development trail. its just that a lot of people make the automatic assumption about the 'stone age', that they were all dumb grunts, whereas the craftsmanship demonstrated in a lot of the flint and other stone tools shows a high degree of sophistication.
Do remember we are still stone age cavemen in psyche, as intelligent, and with the same instincts. We are far from being superior to those ancients in mind and body, all we have is a mountain to their meagre pile of tools and ideas. We still love to dig, forage and hunt, instincts that we have been afforded to adapt to arts and sciences so far removed from their origin that it is difficult to discern how and the why's of today.
This is one of the greatest technologies to insure the continuation of our species. The Archeological record indicates that when we started making stone tools we had become meat eaters. Also, it is noteworthy that the size of our brains & skulls inlarged. We have been making stone tools for at least 3 million years. Truly amazing.
I would love to see you make a nice eden point like the ones found here in eastern Colorado US their unique diamond profile is really incredible and I can see you know how .I once once told wood carving that you dont carve a bear you just take away everything that's not the bear I just didn't realize that you would have to remove that muck rock to find that dagger I love it when it gets to the stage where it starts ringing when u handle it really cool!

Salut, beaucoup par moi même, vidéos de Bernard ginelli et documentation, il y a de très bon bouquins pour débuter, notamment "the art of flintknappin"
How to turn a 6 lb rock into a 6 oz rock. A dummy chiming in here, could you cut the large rock down first and maybe make two or more items or would that not leave enough material to work with?
@@adriensauvestre7000 thank you sir, in Belgium we have only very small ones, so you can do nothing with them, in the best case you can make an arrow point, so that sucks. But I can watch your video several times with pleasure so extreme nice, wish you the in life, and may Odin and Freya be by your side, greetings Oli 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Amazing flint knapping skills. I loved every single minute watching you working.
That was indeed a great pleasure to watch, thank you.
You should show how sharp it is by demonstrating on a piece of paper or meat. Beautiful craftsmanship though. Well done
piece of paper,you serious?
Serrated blades don't fare well against the paper test but I can guarantee this would slice through a side of beef no worries
It’s not for cutting paper with is it? What would Stone Age man be doing cutting papers

Except he used a metal tool to make it. If you have metal then this is pointless. No stone age being could have done this using metal tool.
I love his forceful flick to each flake!
Magnifique travail un vrai retour à nos ancêtres bravo monsieur

This is how humans discovered fire making weapons created sparks which they then experimented with
Amazing skill 👍👍

Personally I prefer to see each hit rather than speeded up.. the process is as interesting as the end result..
great skill

Really nice job, where can I find a piece of flint like that?
Idk where you live but I can find flint at a rocky beach I go to sometimes
Masterful job of knapping! You must have started when you were in diapers. 😁👍
That pressure flake begins to hurt after a little while
I would love to have one!!! Or an obsidian one .

Nice hammerstone skills to use the same stone as an abrader... Where is the flint from?
Hi, thank you, this flint is from Bergerac, south western France
Does there always have to be so much of the flint wasted ? Should you always start with a large piece ?
Where'd you get that copper for the pressure flaker
How much for beautiful piece of work

Hola, es silex de Bergerac, en Francia
Fantástico trabalho.Os meus Parabéns 👏
Pensei que era o único Br aqui
Mấy cái miếng đá đó thì dễ r thử đá xanh ở vn nè làm đc mới lạ
Its beautiful knife, but why don't you create different shapes other than double sided daggers.
Rock =. Rocki !!!🙌🍀
