WHAT IS HIGH GRADE STONE?
Anything you can run a 1/2" or more flake with a pressure flaker.
HEAT TREATING:
Heat treat a few FLAKES of everything you got except HIGH GRADE Raw Stone, Obsidian, Dacite, Basalt, Hornstone, Sonora, Fort Payne, or Rhyolite. Start with flakes and spalls less than 1" thick for 200°F for 24 hours to dry it out. Then raise the temp to 275°F and hold for 4 hours. Let cool down for 12 hours. Chip and compare. If no difference, put back I at 200°F for 1/2 hour, then raise to 275 for 1/2 hour, then raise to 325 for 4 hours.
Let cool down for 12 hours. Chip and compare. If no difference, put back in at 200°F for 1/2 hour, then raise to 275 for 1/2 hour, then raise to 325 for 1/2 hour, the raise to 375 for 4 hours.
Repeat with temp going up 50°F until you reach 600°F or nice chippable stone. Whichever comes first. If no good result, or things blow up, let us know. - Навчання та стиль
Very nice brother. I sometimes forget about the flakes. I have some to🤔. Be safe in that heat Gene Gorringe Mi 👍✌️🇺🇲
Great job, I know how snappy these flakes can be. You handled it well. this point would kill a deer or a bear placed properly. Enjoyed the video.
I finally found some good rock in my area. Time to be a copy 😺.
Went on a creek hunt yesterday. Had some decent luck. Found some points and 4 peices of glass and bottle bottoms to knap. 😎
Illegal to touch points in my state.

" what the heck is he doing now?...is he shaving while napping now"...🤣😂😝😆...yes he is, hes a multifaceted " facit" napper...( Dremel buzzing in back ground)
😂
Veey nice work both ways.
😊
I felt a palpable shock when that barb broke......
You're supposed to have been asleep by that time... haha 😄
Everyone knows that grinding and flaking is way harder than plain old knapping.
In one of your videos you commented on the airplane noise going overhead and mentioned that you were near an airfield that has vintage aircraft or something like that. Well, yesterday, I kid you not, I hear this distinct sound - oh my gosh - I look up and see a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress. I couldn't believe it. What a thrill :)
Nice! Yeah, we have an international air & space port in our city, and the WWII museum in Sweetwater, TX, flies their planes back and forth occasionally.
That's the kind of dacite that beat me the first time i tried it lol. It's got that grainy but smooth look
You should probably add some lithium to your minerals... 😁
Hmmm
Make the kids that you take everywhere pay for rides in time picking up rocks 😊
I’m just taking advantage of a boat.
I wish
Love the little whale tail 👍
I just found a piece of fire obsidian laying around (scoundrels renamed it fire magnatite so they could steal the claim ) I know where stuff is 😉 where are you located ?
I'm in Midland, TX
The reason why the steel gets blunted so quickly is that steel and glass have the same hardness (at least on the Mohs scale) and what you're working with is probably just a bit harder than glass, so it's scratching the steel they time you slide them along each other.
This stuff is actually a bit softer than glass.
Muito bom !...🙂
And I've been meaning to ask ya, you used to work with copper but not anymore. What was the reason and should I follow and switch to steel and aluminum?
I still work with copper sometimes, just not on video. I use other metals because some people have said they don't work. They are clearly wrong.
Copper needs a lot of upkeep which Jack dislikes a lot.😁
Aluminum is close to antler in the way it peels off flakes without the antler cost. I use everything all the time, copper iron, aluminum, bone, rock, antler, wood. If one thing doesn't work I try another until it works or breaks. Use what works for you.
Sorry Mr. Crafty you left a few things out😁
@KnapperJackCrafty I have used aluminum and I can agree that it works. I find it to be like antler the way it wears down with usage also.
