This is a flintknapping channel for flintknappers who flintknap. :) My goal is to help with direct percussion, indirect percussion, pressure flaking, notching, and other stuff, including tool descriptions, and techniques with copper and abo work to include copper boppers, solid-head billets, ishi sticks, hammerstones, antler billets, peg punches, etc.
So anyway...if you want to make clovis points, folsoms, scottsbluffs, andice points, or maybe even a gary, or just ruin rocks and make debitage or a sollberger fluting jig, then um, i've done all that kinda thing and might have some tips in my videos that might help. As of February 2015 I'm trying to do more videos to increase the value of the information on here for flintknappers.
