This is a brilliant video, has really helped me as i start learning the whole process

Where did flintknapper Jimmy go, miss the videos.

Do you sell agate rocks to knapp?

Traditionsl flint was using organic materiald. Bone, stone, antler, hoof, & horn.6k years sgo they began to smelt making copper tools. Most returned to the materials provided. Could this have been a spiritual connection?

Where is Jimmy????!!!!

Fun fact, the blue glass your taking about was old insulator glass

Awesome! thanks for several important things

*whips out a steel file AAAAAAAA get that time machine outta there hahaha

Thank you Jimmy. I have been trying to master this specialized pressure flaking for some time. I have come close, but your video has helped me understand some new approaches that has helped me improve.

I sure wish I had access to stone like that!

I took these boppers a small but significantly effective step further..using oak dowel stock and coresponding copper pipe end caps. The "Magic" comes when you ntegrate lead bird shot into the empty space between the bopper stryke face and empty void. So far so good

I will keep coming back to this video series until I get an edge as poison as yours.

6:11 you can make some interesting points and other artistic shapes with Crystal inclusions. Take advantage of the Crystals. I have knapped some very Nice Crystal Tip Points. Use your illusion^!!^ illusion is the Ultimate Weapon.

I wish you would fix that irritating blunt broken tip on that thing. It's just not right.

Excellent video.....Thanks

Copper....traditional tools? To learn modern stone tool industries. After 30 research into Traditional aboriginal Lithic Technology I can say the use of modern tools is the best way to bypass learning imparitive skills found in the Archeological record that reflect how pre-Neolithic humans made Stone Tools.

Greetings, obviously it took me a while to find your post but Thank You for actually looking at the artifacts and working to understand what Isis did rather than making assumptions. Good work and thanks again. pax, PL

Thanks again for sharing your time and talent! KANSAS

I’m really grooving on these videos! I wasted a lot of good stone learning some of this on my own. And there’s not a lot of really good stone within 50 miles of me. I keep looking!

Weren't they the power line insulators?

Your knapping has taught me so much, thank you

Forever thankful, would like to know what happened to you. I have watched your videos many times throughout the last three years.

Hey do you have any videos on finishing the ishi point you showed in the video? I am interested in the finished point and the notching

Great video so helpful thank you

Hello sir! Thank you for your exelent tutorials! I have a question , are you located in the state of California ?….. thank you again sir!!!!

Nice work.

One might note that his work piece is bit of obsidian (looks like), suggesting that one might be able to hone their abilities on a bit of beer bottle?

well you are still zig zagging just in reverse which you have to do some variation on a slab to knap both sides. Also by working into the mass you stand a much bigger chance of breaking the piece.. that is why most knap away from the base like starting at the base and taking flakes away from the mass same with working from the tip. Ishi was very unique with his knapping it is the beauty of the craft thanks for sharing....

Where are you now?

Just found Flint napper Jimmy is there a comment that explains where he went? there’s nothing new. isn’t anyone else concerned about what happened to Jimmy. these videos are priceless we owe it to find this man.

an uptick is not abrasion?

To be able to do this is amazing!!!!!!!

It seems to take a lot of rock to make one point. I was a little surprised by that. Getting a good supply of good rock will be critical for me to start. Tom Johnson

I don't know about you, but I've never found an agate that spalls very well. It produces dangerous edges, but always fractures and breaks up pretty small. Heat treating changes much of that behavior though.

I Have enjoyed your videos.....Thanks for doing these for us.

Amazing

Blood for the blood God!

More videos?

That is good worm keep it up.

are you still around? where can I find the DVD?

Amazing point

Paleo Jim and Jack craft have really good knowledge on those points, check them out ,I don't mean any offence by the suggestion, just passing on information, You are doing a great job ,those ears are tricky took me a bit to figure it out, I'm a carpenter by trade so finesse was a new trick for me, great job making the point and great video

I knap some stones the way you are ,I use many different ways ,because not all stone knaps the same way, as you no doubt know,

That's some nice agate , I always do my notches once i perform a piece , i learned the basics from a friend in Missouri, but i learned so much more from a shoshone in Nevada

Where did you get the stone agate that you used to make this point. I'm always looking for something new to try and have never made a point of this material.Thanks

I think he did use milk of Amnesia glass but I can't remember

Because most beautiful Point I've ever seen oh my God

When I was a kid I could find stuff like that everywhere nobody cared about it reproduce Divine Bridge pre Monken amazing wow you are truly a dog

the edge of all points have the sharpness needed for cutting, . the abrasion defeats that goal, its great appearance .

Thanks, good series.
