Time seems to be relevant to what is framed relevant...I watched the video and had nothing competing for the time to watch and enjoyed watching ,.. that's my personal perspective .... thanks for sharing your time producing something worthy of watching ...
I have to admit, this for me was a tedious video, but very enjoyable. I liked watching the progress of the preform into a finished point. Thank you for sharing your skills.
Amazing video Ryan! This is the best channel for gathering practical data how hunting in the stone age was done, because you use what you make. Keep us posted!!
@@huntprimitive9918 You're welcome and you've earned it :D Few ideas have come to my mind about making and testing neolithic vs mesolithic axes, now because i don't have the necessarry materials (and skill) to make them maybe that could be your next video? Also, making the mesolithic style arrow and comparing it to the neolithic one? Fletchings, arrowhead, shaft and so on.. And finally, can you split the arrow shaft at the butt end and just insert the whole feather in to make the arrow fletchings? Sorry If this was a little over the top I just had a bunch of ideas had to share them :D
I have thousands of arrowheads i have found in the plowed fields over many years. I have found some good, bad, and some they didn't much qualify as a point. Those guys would have really liked to have had you around back then. Good job! God Bless!
Ryan, this is the best instructional video of how to make an arrowhead using either primitive tools or copper tools. I am just starting out, but have been fascinated all my life with how the American Indians survived and hunted. You are an excellent teacher and you have the patients of Job! Keep doing what you re doing. Maybe I can one day be half as good as you are on just making points. All of your videos are excellent training and very practical. Enjoy watching them!!! Good and safe hunting! Jack
Wasn't boring at all. I learned a heck of a lot watching and listening to you. Been trying to learn knapping for several years. Learning by self teaching mostly, till I came across your videos. Since then I have greatly improved, I thank you very much for your willingness to teach. Its nice to see how and the why of doing it, as well as seeing you recover from mistakes or mishaps. Again thank you so very much.
So glad I found your channel. For me you provide the most competitive instruction on these skills. I used to make serviceable, but crude arrow points when I was a kid. Was always frustrated with not being able to drive long enough flakes. You've taken alot of the mystery out of these techniques. This will also help with making my gun flnts. Totally engrossed in the video. Not boring at all.
Hey mr Farnsworth, I can’t agree more with your comments about this page. It’s answered a few questions that I didn’t even know that I should’ve been asking myself! I wonder how you’ve progressed since you got here? You said that you’re a knapper of rifle flints right?
Someone really long long ago toiled to create such tools to kill, eat, survive and successfully grow into this big civilization that we are today..! Such a good video depicting this..!
Very good detail and information. Too many people want the Bloomberg way of things "farming you dig a hole put a seed in and water it and you get food" They have no idea what it really takes to make things. Thank you for the great video.
ive watched bow, arrow and arrowhead videos and i have to say, that is impressive, ive seen a few knapping vids but none really taught me like this 1, the rest of the bow and arrow build shows to me exactly how this could have been done just like this by stone age people, im amazed at how easy you make that look, if i had the money id buy your aboriginal recurve bow, one day maybe
When I was growing up me and two friends after breakfast we're in the canyon looking for shafts of bamboo to make arrows what we did, borrowed my moms shears with metal tin cans and shaped arrowheads out of them they were great and if you hit a rock the bend we straighten them out and off we go they worked OK and we glued pigeon feathers to the shaft it didn't really stay on well A learning experience, but we were kids also we made zip guns that we're great for shooting cans🕶"
Thank you so much Ryan for all the instructional videos, they have helped me explore the amazing world of primitive hunting! I look forward to continuing a binge of this wonderful content!
I actually reached out to him once, I got no response. Honestly, sponsored hunters don't like what I do. they always give me the cold shoulder. I am sharing things that teach people that they don't need all that techy gear they are paid to promote.
He doesn't seem to mind primitive techniques when he visits indigenous people in other countries lol. Maybe there's a double standard. Anyway I really enjoy these videos. I just started hunting this year so i need to hone my skills as an archer first but I am excited to try some of these techniques in the future. So thanks for taking the time to make these videos.
I started knapping with glass bottles and had problems with getting pieces to break and after watching you videos i learned a lot more and was actually able to be more aggressive and know what i need to do to get more pieces to break off in a uniform fashion i have only made 6 arrow heads in my life but after watching your videos i was able to make them very well i have impressed some people with the pieces i have made i plan to try making some with actual flint soon but working with bottles has its own challenges that i have to work around but they look very professional for someone that is very new to the whole thing
Watched some videos what I notice same technique with different tools I am enjoying your technique with primitive tools a subscriber from here on out, i'll be watching more of your technique with tools you have thank you for bringing your talent to the forefront. 🕶"
I rewatched your beginners video and kept in my head that layers of paper and made me have more successful. First time I have ended up with a much thinner Biface 1:4. 1:5. But it always ends up in the trash for either working it down to a pebble or fracturing it. BUT I have improved considerable and one of these days I will have some arrow heads.
I am a blacksmith specializing in edged weapons. I have had people ask for spears to hunt bear. But this is the first time I've seen stone spear hunting, other than videos on ancient man
Very nice point and yes abo knapping is harder than copper knapping,I still do both because you may not have a copper tool kit for knapping in the woods,,thank you for the video upload.
Ryan gill you should show your new primitive model bows ability to kill a deer it's that time again also I just love watching the primitive deer hunting videos
This is my first day of even seeing this.I have made my own arrows out of bamboo curtain rods and all that I need to know if you don't mind how to work on a bow
You have helped me very much on this new art and all I have is a toilet to start on haha. If you have the time some day contact me and I would love to learn straight from the source .
The arrowheads look like natural bleeders Similar to a Bayonet with a blood groove's Some arrows have detachable arrowheads that stay in the body until it bleeds out🕶"
I have a 92 pound piece of chert i backpacked all most 2 miles in a back pack over slippery as snot logs along a lake shore line when the water was low. I knew if i didnt pack it out when i found it. I would never get a chance again to get it as it would more than likely be under water and so much i would never find it again. Havent cracked into it yet as i want to grind off all th cortex before i begin getting spalls for heat treatment. Hopefull i can put some of your information to good use on this beast of piece i found. Where i live finding anything knappable is rare finding a piece of this size is incredibly rare dont want to waste much.
Chris McCuaig I live in Ramona we have creek beds I plan on walking the creek bed and find suitable Flint or shards of rockI may be able to use when I gather tools. You lucked out finding that big piece lots and lots arrowheads on that good luck to you🕶"
Well as a perfectionist you do a good job in making the points but as a perfectionist you sure do a bad job in answering questions just saying I asked you a question on quite a few your videos on how much it would cost for you to make a bow for me with Arrows and never got an answer but that doesn't mean I'm not going to stop watching your videos one they're informative and they're interesting and you can do something I can't I've tried doing that before every Rock I've ever tried I've always snapped in half so I gave up on trying you have a blessed day and God bless

Is it viable to use stone and wood or only stone if antler were unavailable? I'm learning from the perspective of a survival situation where I've lost my gear and am recreating what I need from scratch, potentially for several weeks, and I'd like to know that if I can't find antler, I'd still be able to make stone tools effectively. Your thoughts? Thanks.
Good morning Ryan. As always, a very interesting and informative video. One question - I'm a fairly new knapper and I see you and other videos on UA-cam and the knapper will sometimes support with their fingers right up to the edge of a platform , as you did right around 12:00, and other times I see and hear that if the flake comes into contact with anything it will stop the flake so it should be unsupported as in a hand pad. Pretty confusing to me. Can you tell me the difference - when to support and when not to? Thank You
I don't really have a solid answer for you other than I think I do it mostly so I can keep the shockwave down a little. often times where I place my fingers is strategic to absorb shock to keep the piece from snapping. It is one of those subconscious things you acquire over time. It also helps retain the flake so it doesn't shoot off hard into my leg.
Its easier to stick something with a small point than it is to do with a big point. Also less energy is needed to burry the smaller point into an animal than a big point a small point also has less chance of hitting bones its just smaller
Helo!!! I just harvested some wood (europian Acacia) it has very wide rings but they are pretty wobbly..... I can only get one bow from it and it's not going to be more then 1.55-1.60 m. I am a beginner and this is my first bow, that I am making from a whole tree. The question is : Should I give some recurve to the limbs??? (I've watched you're video about making a recurve limb, but I've heard recurving will put a lot of tension in a specific part of the bow, I am afraid not to break it.....
The FlipBooker put a recurve in it give you more punch don't be afraid it's your first one plan on making some kind of mistakes your second one would probably be perfect🕶"
I have a question. The drill points that we find, where most of them manufactured as such? Or were they re-purposed blades who’s edges were sharpened over time?
Just as Tim Described. Usually once it is scored heavily all the way around, you can crack it with a rock to finish it off. Soaking the antler makes it softer also, but you can't then use it for knapping until it dries out well.
Some places have it, others dont. Check some local geological surveys. Usually outcrops are located in creeks or cut banks. If you want to purchase good rock, we have it or sale at www.huntprimitive.com
Accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and you will be saved. John 3:16 (share the good news of the gospel around the world!) Have a wonderful day/night, may the LORD bless you all, and farewell!,.,,,,,,,.,.,.,.
What I find interesting is the arrow heads that you find in rivers streams and so on that actual indians used hundreds of years ago don't seam to be napped as good as what the guys on youtube are doing
They also didn’t have deer unless you’re talking about different aboriginals I only know of Australian aboriginals I thought that was the only use of the word aboriginal
@@electronicfreak1111 no problem, that happens from time to time. Mostly when I hear folks talking about the peoples in Australia they are talking about Aborigines rather than aboriginals, but I am not Australian either, so I can't comment too heavily on the accuracy of the semantics.
HuntPrimitive yeah sounds about right we usually just say aboriginals but it could just be the laziness of Australian slang we tend to not say the correct words for the correct circumstances which is fine when you’re talking to Australians but when you talk to someone from another country yeah
PaddleFlambeau peoples past is just that their past behavior has changed now is no big deal if you could learn from mistakes you may not repeat the past. 🕶"

Is it viable to use stone and wood or only stone if antler were unavailable?

3rd tines a charm!
The smaller Arrow head penetrate deeper than a larger, wider point.
Good morning Ryan. As always, a very interesting and informative video. One question - I'm a fairly new knapper and I see you and other videos on UA-cam and the knapper will sometimes support with their fingers right up to the edge of a platform , as you did right around 12:00, and other times I see and hear that if the flake comes into contact with anything it will stop the flake so it should be unsupported as in a hand pad. Pretty confusing to me. Can you tell me the difference - when to support and when not to? Thank You
I don't really have a solid answer for you other than I think I do it mostly so I can keep the shockwave down a little. often times where I place my fingers is strategic to absorb shock to keep the piece from snapping. It is one of those subconscious things you acquire over time. It also helps retain the flake so it doesn't shoot off hard into my leg.
@@huntprimitive9918 Thank You. As with so many other skills, practice, practice, and more practice.
Its easier to stick something with a small point than it is to do with a big point. Also less energy is needed to burry the smaller point into an animal than a big point a small point also has less chance of hitting bones its just smaller
I can't believe I'm watching a knapping video and I'm falling asleep.
Helo!!! I just harvested some wood (europian Acacia) it has very wide rings but they are pretty wobbly..... I can only get one bow from it and it's not going to be more then 1.55-1.60 m. I am a beginner and this is my first bow, that I am making from a whole tree. The question is : Should I give some recurve to the limbs??? (I've watched you're video about making a recurve limb, but I've heard recurving will put a lot of tension in a specific part of the bow, I am afraid not to break it.....
If it is your first bow, don't worry about the recurved tips. keep it basic for your first few bows. good luck on the build
@@huntprimitive9918 OK thank you! Love all you do, keep up the good work!
The FlipBooker put a recurve in it give you more punch don't be afraid it's your first one plan on making some kind of mistakes your second one would probably be perfect🕶"
I have a question. The drill points that we find, where most of them manufactured as such? Or were they re-purposed blades who’s edges were sharpened over time?
Yes on both. Many are reworked worn out blades and other could be made into a drill from the beginning.
Nice
Great video Ryan, thanks so much for your shared knowledge! What's your Irish connection ? Apart from being a profectionist !!!!😀
thanks much. Not a ton of direct recent heritage other than both some genetic and cultural influenced connection.
I just made an assumption based on your claddagh ring , the whole world is Irish on March 17th anyway!!! Looking forward to the mounted hunt video 👍
What is your billet made out of?
How did they cut the antler using primitive tools?
I don't know how but I'm certain that they had to use sharp rocks in a sawing motion .
Same as wood. I've made tools by scoring the perimeter, using heat to make it more brittle and apply force to the weak point you've created.
Just as Tim Described. Usually once it is scored heavily all the way around, you can crack it with a rock to finish it off. Soaking the antler makes it softer also, but you can't then use it for knapping until it dries out well.
Erich Hunter Ph.D. A sharp Flint stone would do it🕶"
So you need to heat treat the flint ?
It depends on the rock type and quality. YOu don't always have to it, but it can better the quality of the rock a lot.
0:38 in Australia, abbo tools are a rag and some petrol
Some arrowheads were the size of a dime. Tim wells proves how well small points work by killing a bear with a blowgun dart.
A knife blade should be thicker than an arrow head?
How would you like to drive to missouri just to teach me personally? :) just kidding,... unless you want to! Lol
Llano Texas has a nap in every October if you want to learn to nap go to it and they also have rock we will not be sorry you went
do u sell knapping stones chert/obsidian /ect ????
yes we do. you can find them all under the flintknapping section at www.huntprimitive.com
where can i find flint/chert?
Some places have it, others dont. Check some local geological surveys. Usually outcrops are located in creeks or cut banks. If you want to purchase good rock, we have it or sale at www.huntprimitive.com
At God's grossory store. located near you. No money needed all he asks is not to waste anything you take.

What I find interesting is the arrow heads that you find in rivers streams and so on that actual indians used hundreds of years ago don't seam to be napped as good as what the guys on youtube are doing
h b frend
If a large arrowhead is used on a arrow for a bow, you lose distance and accuracy.
I’ve tried flint knapping all kinds of rocks and even glass I just can’t do it
Practice, practice, practice. We all started at the same level.
Chappell Outdoors At first you don't succeed your below average you'll get it when you do can you jump for joy don't fall on your arrowhead🕶"
If you aren't bleeding you're not doing it right
Joshua C I got a few cuts 😂
Aboriginals didn’t have arrows
They also didn’t have deer unless you’re talking about different aboriginals I only know of Australian aboriginals I thought that was the only use of the word aboriginal
Aboriginal is a word that simply defines the first inhabitants of an area. All continents have Aboriginals.
HuntPrimitive oh ok I thought it just meant native Australians
@@electronicfreak1111 no problem, that happens from time to time. Mostly when I hear folks talking about the peoples in Australia they are talking about Aborigines rather than aboriginals, but I am not Australian either, so I can't comment too heavily on the accuracy of the semantics.
HuntPrimitive yeah sounds about right we usually just say aboriginals but it could just be the laziness of Australian slang we tend to not say the correct words for the correct circumstances which is fine when you’re talking to Australians but when you talk to someone from another country yeah
Dude are you in a cave ?
