Boring 😅😅😅

You would starve 😂😂

You have a good imagination 😅😅😅

River rocks 🪨 😂😂😂

Have any gravey 😂😂

I take a knap sometimes lol 😂

Bisque’s 😂😂😂

Put the stone down and put straws in the hole'

Not hammer ,maybe money ot coin, maybe book.

I have several, probably close to a hundred stones that were obvious hammer stones. They were the only quartzite stones in a sea of sandstone, basalt and flakes. They all have the same basic shape. I have also found perfectly flat rocks, I'd assume to form the quartzite rocks to shape. It almost seemed like a factory in a huge area in southern Utah. They shaped the hammer stones in mass production, of all sizes, then used those in a different area to make the points. I even tested my theory by, instead of looking for flakes, I'd look for the hammer stones and viola! Surrounded by a sea of flakes. Each stone has pecking.

Wow,that is top-shelf work. True artisan,salute👍

Excellence👍 Yes,we've seen the short-shafts with points attached w sinew AND a tar pitch-,type material in rock shelters along where the Lower Pecos meets the Rio Grande. Nice Dalton!

Beauty work bud going out with grandson try and find some pieces to work!

Bought one but in the end sold it to another knapper .

Superb craftmanship and something to aspire to. I'm having problems getting pressure flakes to run any distance on a similar flint material which means the edges quickly become too steep. Any tips you can share please. Tried all sorts but they just don't seem to want to go so it must be me.

I have a rock with 8 deep holes on one side and 2 on the other side

copper tool. what a shame.

I am glad we don't wash with gasoline powered Maytag washing machines. I shudder to think what we would happen to the air quality on a Saturday wash day in suburbia if everyone did wash this way. Electric much better

This was a really informative video. I'm still new to artifact hunting. I'm 4 years in. Still hoping to find an ads or a salt.

Hi ken, you probably don't know me, i feel like I know you, I've watched you so much and I love hammer stones, but why I am commenting is i just came across creek Dalton's video on that rock with the hole in it, pretty amazing it is , i also saw your comment, also there's a newer comment 6 years old now from an archaeologist that knew what it was, he said it was a loom waight, pretty cool, just thought I would see if you had seen that, i think he could start his own museum .

Our farm was upstream near Fillmore, Ny.... It was a sight ta behold....

He is the juice.

Very late note: ACTUAL bird-stones have smooth rather than sharp-ridged centerlines... Perhaps you imagined such ridges from having used side references only for your intended reproductions.

It would be pretty cool mounted on a three-wheel bicycle

So approximately what is the horsepower rating ?

I took a knapping class from Craig almost 30 years ago out at Glass Buttes Oregon. Great knapper, really nice guy. Yes, I still Knapp.

Im in Nevada and chert is about all we have available. Damn near impossible to get a flake its very hard material. Upside is they spark well and last.

This is what I've been looking for! I thank you for posting this. Now I'm beginning to believe that I can do this. 😊

Love those points. I field collect all over southeastern michigan and Macomb county is known for frequent points made of onanadaga chert. Found many myself. Most common materials for this county are: Bayport chert, Onondaga chert, Kettle Point chert and stoney creek chert.

Absolutely incredible artifacts.

If you are staring knapping copper is way easier

Of stone boats snd working sleds. Ive seen a sled to drag in a circle...the bittom was loaded eith flint chips presses into the cracks in the wood , some hammered in...the goal was to separate the wheat from the chaff...say 2 10x2s .of about 5 feet long .. would you alter the chips ? Use just random cast offs ? ...ever seen this before? ...any tips and tricks?...best glue ,modern and or archeac?

They are fake 😂😂😂

Paleo man 😅😅

You are older than dirt 😂😂😂😂

Wow! That's amazing. You are very talented!

I see the bench is still there… thanks for the video! Very curious who Ken is irl

Where is that place?

il na pas de gaz il marche avec quoi

😮 Ils sont fabriqués avec des machines ou à la main ?

Hey bro!! Glad you’re surviving the cool winter up there!! Love your channel boss…I’ve been knapping 4 years…soon after I found my first artifacts…and you have been a great teacher, so thx!!! Fantastic skills my man!!! Love hammerstones myself!!! Unless you knap…you would never see the details in these artifacts…I’m going to do a video tonight just for your viewing pleasure…since I believe you’ll appreciate the artifacts…thx again and talk soon!!!

Great video! I use to get tired of finding hammer stones and now that I’m a knapper I like finding them as much as arrowheads.

Good informational video, I am still searching for my first one.Thanks for showing what they look like.

Very cool! Most of the hammer stones I’ve found all look to be used for other things. That’s awesome you found one for knapping!

Happy to hear you’re going to be doing more videos! Always like seeing the man cave too! I understand how you feel about those hammerstones. I have found many, but it’s those small ones that are really neat.

Wow you watch something like this and say to yourself I know I've seen those before and didn't know what there purpose was! It's like you could re annualize everything you looked at and get a better idea of what in front of you! Great video!

How old are they ? Was you ever contacted by paleontologists ? Thank you !

Always look forward to your videos. Very educational, wish you would make more

Always something interesting in the cave! Thanks for sharing!
