$This Kentucky Hornstone Cuts Like Glass! | Massive Tab to Wide Biface In today’s video on Gulf Coast Knapping, I take on a massive tab of slick Kentucky hornstone chert and reduce it down into a wide biface. This material is incredibly glassy — it cuts clean, but it will also punish bad platform prep. You’ll see the full reduction process: • Reading the rock • Managing thick cortex • Setting up strong percussion platforms • Controlling long thinning flakes • Keeping width while thinning Kentucky hornstone can behave almost like obsidian when it’s this slick — but it still demands proper edge preparation and angle control. If you enjoy watching large raw stone get tamed into a clean biface, this one’s for you. If you’re learning to flintknap, pay attention to how I: – Establish my first platforms – Correct hinge fractures – Adjust swing force for thicker mass – Maintain symmetry during early reduction Thanks for watching and supporting the channel. More coral, hornstone, and flint ridge builds coming soon. 👍 Like the video 💬 Comment your thoughts on this hornstone 🔔 Subscribe for more weekly knapping content #Flintknapping #Hornstone #Chert #PrimitiveSkills #StoneTools #Biface #GulfCoastKnapping #LithicReduction #Knapping$
