In this video from Gulf Coast Knapping, I break open a massive Tallahatta quartzite boulder and start working the fresh spalls into a future blade biface. Tallahatta is one of the most unique Gulf Coast materials I’ve worked, and I was excited to finally see what was hiding inside this huge piece of stone.

Watch as I bust large spalls off the boulder, examine the quality of the quartzite, and begin shaping the material for a future primitive blade project. If you enjoy flintknapping, primitive technology, stone tools, artifact-style blades, or unique knappable materials, this one is for you.
