About This Workshop
Stone knapping is the process of shaping stones, usually flint or chert or any other conchoidal fracturing stone, through the process of lithic reduction to make stone tools. In this class, James will teach students how to strike a stone at angles which will remove flakes from the core. By fashioning the stone in a specific way, it can create an arrowhead. Students will learn how to follow a ridge to remove as much of the stone as possible. James will also discuss the history of stone tools and how stones can be used in a survival situation.
