$Can I Save This Cracked Rock? Most flintknappers would probably toss this piece of Flint River chert in the scrap pile. A deep fracture runs right through the middle, and one wrong strike could ruin the entire rock. Can I remove every bit of the crack and still end up with a finished point, or is this one beyond saving? Watch as I test whether patience, planning, and careful flintknapping can rescue a rock that looks like it’s already finished.

$The #1 Beginner Flintknapping Mistake Most beginner flintknappers don’t fail because of their tools—they fail because they don’t know where to hit. In this video, I break down one of the biggest mistakes I see new knappers make: choosing the wrong platform. I’ll show you how to identify the best place to strike, what angles to look for, and why one small change can completely transform your flintknapping results. Whether you’re just getting started or you’ve been knapping for years, understanding platform selection will help you remove longer flakes, reduce step fractures, and make better arrowheads.
