I totally agree with some of the others. Great job in making something out of a hunk of rock that didn't look too promising. I like seeing you make something out of what others wouldn't even have a chance at. Well done, well done.
Very nice, exciting, entertaining video from the beginning to the end. I like the elegant "willowblade tool" result a lot. Not giving up makes sense. "Voila" Regards from Denmark, don`t stop talking in your videos!
I enjoy the commentary. In every video play never know what to expect. Could be life lessons could be breakfast cereal. Could be politics could be cartoons
I told my little girls that water in the rock is rock blood😅. I worked a piece last night that took me down the same path of damage control. We even made the same shapes.
Here in Kentucky, we have several kinds of ticks ! The ones you're talking about are no big deal ! The bad ones are the little ones ! Smaller than a pinhead! In huge nests with several hundred ! When you get into them, they are all over you ! The bites look like you were eat up with chiggers ! You could literally play connect the dots !!! We never had those years ago !
Tried knapping this week for an hour. After a 2 year break it’s NOT like riding a bike. Spent most of the time looking for tools / tool maintenance. Hit a few long flakes all in the wrong direction. I still enjoy watching you tame the big ugly rocks. About time for some rhyolite?
I love watching you work ! I'm getting really good at calling your next strokes ! Here in Kentucky, I live along the Ohio river. There are huge fields with corn, soybeans etc. I use to hunt the artifacts when they plowed in the spring. I'd wait till we'd had a good rain ! Do you think that everyone flint napping now has affected the collectors ???
Ticks often like to crawl up trees and high shrubs. They can then drop down on warm blooded critter like dogs and humans. They can sense them at a distance. I have experienced the troubles that ticks can cause. Bad stuff. Paralysis and pain.
We need to have some serious discussion in this country to bring us back to center. You can't have a productive conversation without following the rules of conversation. Logical fallacies are those rules.
I found a piece almost identical in size to that turtle back you're working. It was a lighter, creamy color ! I looked down and could see 3" of flint, just under the soil. I reach down to get it and unfortunately it was broken in half ! It was still about 3"× 4" and 3/8" thick ! It was the heel of the piece !
Great video. Is that rock heat treated? I have some similar and was trying to work it last night and it wasn't flaking very well. It also is not heat treated. Should I heat treat it?
It's not heat treated. I recommend heat treating some flakes, no matter what stone it is, when you're having trouble knapping it. Try 350°F for 4 hours. Also, look up my heat treating videos. Do a search for Jack Crafty Heat Treat. Lastly, you can put the stones and flakes through more than one heat treat. Go 25°F higher with each re-heat.
I killed a deer one season. I walked maybe 50yds to get to it. By the time I got to it, less than 5 minutes, literally hundreds of the larger deer ticks were exiting, stage left ! I could see them crawling up out of the hair, all over it's body ! It was disgusting! Like a scene from a Stephen King movie ! What intrigued me most, was the fact that they knew their host was dead ! It was cold out, I guess they could tell the difference in the body temperature ?
Hey you sound like you come from the same area as Nick of Nick's Garage, me I'm from So. Cal. so I don't hear many regional accents, but tons of foreign ones.
@@KnapperJackCrafty It is ground up chalk rock which is made from zillions of glassy shells of long dead plankton. It cuts the feet and joints of arthropods causing them to leak. It is not toxic but don't inhale the dust. I use it on fire ant nests.
I’ll be one of those guy’s….. when you going to Knapp that double bit axe I sent you pictures of?😂 hoping when you do it will be from GA Jasper but if not I’ll still be a serious bidder for that one!
Yeah, I have over twenty of them, and by the forth of july, you cannot find a tick on the place! Only problem is the coyotes ike them as much as I do! 🤔

Yup. 😁
Some Crapola turned into a beautiful thing. Nice 👍

Great job turning that POS rock into something sweet.
I enjoy your work and comments.

I've heard of those. Nasty bugs.

If I had some good rhyolite, I'd knap it. 😁

Oh yes. No doubt. There's lots of modern points in many collections, unfortunately.
Yellow stone is better than yellow snow...don't eat the yellow snow.🤣🤣😃🤣😳🤷

Very cool!
Find a lot of ancient arrowheads with the problems you're talking about, they just left it as is and used it in many cases.
How u isolated that platform and ran that flake at 23:20 blew my mind.
That's one of those, "It did it!" moments. I don't plan those. But they're very nice, I agree.

Yes, and besides the drop in temp, the fresh blood stops flowing.

I imitate a lot of accents. This is how I talk in real life:

Fossil Shell Flour for insect pests. AKA Diatomaceous earth. Get it bulk at garden supply and farm supply feed stores.

How did you know?¿
I'm not knapping today.
I'm in the shade watching
And having a couple of buds
✌️😀
Avon, skin so soft bath oil(original). Keeps mosquitoes and ticks away. 👍🏼
Something tells me I'm not going to try this
I’ll be one of those guy’s….. when you going to Knapp that double bit axe I sent you pictures of?😂 hoping when you do it will be from GA Jasper but if not I’ll still be a serious bidder for that one!
I'm going to knap that one on the side. It won't be in the auction.
@@KnapperJackCrafty are you going to do it on video? If so I can’t wait to see that!
@@markholbrook8683 yes
Gnarly dude.
We're do you get your palm pad?
I made it
Sulfur pellets in your yard will get rid of ticks and also spiders and other crawlies.
Interesting
4 hours dang I need step up my game
I wish you would make me a Cumberland I know you can do it 😂
Eventually.
Dinosaur water😂
😁
I would have tossed that rock in the creek and let mother nature take the jaggies off.
Yeah, probably a smart idea. Can't help myself, though. 😊
Ahh, what an ugly rock to have to maximize. This should be a good one.
No more fallacies 🇺🇸.
😁💯
Hey it's not 3AM. Lol
Guinea fowl eat ticks. Need to get them young to get them to stick around. They Are noisy tho. But are good watch dogs too. Lol.
They are low maintainence tho.
@@deathatsix interesting
❤
Guinea eat ticks.
Yupper

I’m going to be honest. You’re very talented but need to talk less about non-flint Knapping stuff. I had to mute you for most of your video.
I have "no talk" videos. You can do a TH-cam search for "jack crafty no talk".
Patrick, just keep talking. I like it...makes the videos amusing 😄. The conversations are great👍😎
That is beautiful chert, it has a little yellow in the colors and the faithful viewers know how much you like the yellow stones. 🍌🍌🍌🍌🐒🍌🍌🐒🍌🐒🍌🍌🐒
