Hiya! In this video I am flintknapping under a strict time limit, working through the full reduction process from start to finish. The knapping goes better than expected, and the point comes together clean enough that I wanted to see how it really stacks up!
At the end, I compare the finished arrowhead to some of the best examples ever found in the Deep South—well-known for their symmetry, thinning, and craftsmanship. It’s a real-world look at whether a modern, speed-knapped point can even be in the same conversation.
Let me know what you think of the finished piece, and what kind of challenge I should try next!
