I just bought a notched stone from an antique centre, then went back and bought some arrow heads. I'm told the stone is early neolithic, English, and the flint pieces are from northern Sahara. They're presents for my husband so I'm delighted to find your videos which show how these might have been made- such control and precision, thank you!!

Nice video, you might consider using some indirect percussion with the pressure flaker when you piece gets thin. You will amaze yourself on how thin you can get a piece without breaking the piece.

Thanks Greg. Really appreciate your explanations, especially how the flakes run from different points. Thanks for taking the time.

I find knapping Dacite a challenge. With regards to Pressure Flaking, I find it necessary to impart a lot of pressure to detach a flake. This has motivated me towards using a very sharp copper flaker. Point construction tends to be toward making smaller points. Your own experience as shown in the video showing broken points being re-jigged to making a still smaller point is all too familiar. Dacite can be knapped without heat treatment but I wonder if you have ever heat treated Dacite to determine if some of it’s negative characteristics can be eliminated?

His Dacite looks very high quality. That's probably why mine is no good.

Materials were often hard to get. So points were probably worked and reworked untill lost or broken. At least thats my theory.

I see where I messed up. instead of holding the piece flat when I was rough shaping I had it at an angle. Good to know, very informative.
