Remarkable , so many blades from one piece of obsidian . I remember hearing a story how those are used in surgery as scalpels . Would you know if any of that is true ?
I flint knap but having advanced to making prismatic blades. Could you help me design a jig so I can try to make some. Also would you sell a set of blades so I could make a macuahuitl for a friend.
It is wonderful to see this part of history recreated. Is it possible to buy any of these blades from you or anyone?
This is a great video much respect Tony. Those blades are infamous.
So that’s how they make them
Awesome channel bud! Beautiful fire clouds on your pottery.
Awesome, i did not know how people made those long obsidian pieces for the swords. thanks for the video keep up the great work.
Awesome video! Do you have any videos showing how you made the actual core before pushing blades off of it?
I don’t but I’m hoping to make another video again soon . T I think Paleomanjim shows one on UA-cam
That was really cool. Thanks for posting.
That’s some awesome work!
Yes I sell them, I don’t have any at the moment, how many would you want?
Thank you
How easy is it to learn this technique?
There are easier ways, you just have to know how to flint Knapp a bit. It takes some time but with someone showing you not to long

The were used for surgery before the types of swords shown in this video were developed, there's an article about it on jstor.
You can use a Solberger jig if you have one?
I heard it was true. Sharpest thing in nature
