Proper youtube. No annoying intro, annoying music, no clickbait. Just tells you what the videos about, then he does it. 👍

Just wanted to say how much I enjoy watching your skills. I’m 70 now but as a child living in Ely I went to Grimes Graves on a school trip, that was probably 1960-61. It was probably when your parents were custodians and when we were allowed down the flint mines and crawl about the tunnels. Something I’ll always remember. Last time I saw you was at Cheddar I believe.

Thanks, Will, for explaining as you go along. Im going to try to do this, but im 70 and hand strength issues due to a rare disease that eats the cartridge from my joints. You can imagine the difficulty that brings. But im going to give it a go. I live in Wyoming, USA, where the Native American "Black Ice Mountain" is, in the Yellowstone Park area. Some very good Obsidian found there! Best wishes on y your upcoming journey.

I enjoyed watching your knapping video sitting on my couch in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. I love the dark flint you have access.

Brilliant Will, just brilliant! I do wonder who was the first person to make an arrowhead? Out of what? Was it from stone? What’s amazing is that they are still in use! Titanium now maybe on Carbon fibre shafts? Your stories and your channel take me back, way back ha ha! Thank you Will.

I find my jaw set for the flake removal while watching.... I knapp and enjoy watching others do so!

Really grateful for what you do. I have learned so much from your videos. I live on the coast near the Oregon border.. my native friends are always impressed when I produce a chert arrowhead that is functional. And it's thanks to all the KZfaq videos of yours

I was happy to find a new video of Will Lord

Always makes me happy to see you've uploaded a new video!

Amazing, i was completely transfixed from start to finish. It's awesome what you do, thank you so much for sharing. I've seen you at shows over the years, must say hi next time. You have inspired me to have a go myself and visit Amesbury as it is just up the road from me. Thanks Will :-)

I thoroughly enjoy you videos ,they've taught me a lot about where I want my skill set to be ,instead of being like the others . Thank you for your contribution to the archeological aspect of knapping

Am very impressed, you made that look relatively simple but it is blindingly obvious too that there is an awful lot of skill, knowledge and expertise gone into it. Thanks for bringing the stone age back to life, have always been a keen archer too so arrows are close to home for me.

The Serpent Mound in Southern Ohio is an amazing ancient site. It's Aldo not too far from the Flint Ridge, a vast deposit of flint that was used by ancient peopled from all over the continent.

Very happy to have found you. Great stuff. (Too good for telly.)

I love watching videos on prehistoric topics! I’d love to see how you made some of the jewelry you wear.

Hello from Illinois Mr. Lord I've enjoyed every video of yours that I've watched.

Another great video Will... I always wondered how the notches were made.... must find a source of flint here in NZ...

Just started knapping. Really enjoy your vids. Keep up the great work. Thanks for the information.

Amazing work I've been working with glass as we don't have a lot of good stone. It works well with my copper tools n it's rewarding to see the end result. Love your videos

Brought a smile to my face on another rainy day in the UK

Thank you for sharing this,and your upcoming journeys with us sir.

Beautiful and beautifully done!

Brilliant! What an art!

Great info and an kindly personality!

Great video. Nice work Will 👌

Interested in the jewelry you wear and looking forward to your trip

Impressionante sua habilidade em confeccionar lâminas de pedra. Parabéns.

Wow, it's just amazing.

Maybe some day I can cross the big pond and come do some napping

Grasias man ufff años y años provando tecnicas y por fin lo encontre miles de grasias

Nice.

Brilliant

Awesome Knapping strategy - Just don`t be afraid to hear the flute sound - mistakes are in the learning curve ,Oh wait you knew that , Try a banjo - LOL

It will kill for sure.

Nice

Will Lord (or any body else), where is the best place to get full Flint nodes so I could start knapping. I am in Western PA in the US

Nice work Will. Have you tried using period correct tools like antlers for the fine knapping? I expect it's harder to get the detail work with more crude tooling?

Różnimy się wielce Pan robi kształty a ja je poleruję.😏

Given the time and work that went into producing that arrowhead how would I have paid you in the stone age?? And wouldnt it have been more expedient to just use a fire hardened arrow head? Unless I could make them myself??

Well done Will. You are giving us a view back thousands of years to the amazing skills our ancestors had.

Thanks, Will, for explaining as you go along. Im going to try to do this, but im 70 and hand strength issues due to a rare disease that eats the cartridge from my joints. You can imagine the difficulty that brings. But im going to give it a go. I live in Wyoming, USA, where the Native American "Black Ice Mountain" is, in the Yellowstone Park area.

Thanks for bringing us along as always, Will. Just got a bunch of spare tools from my grandfather along with some spalls and debitage he's collected over the years. Can't wait to start my own knapping journey today.

I heard about you from Paul Kirtley's podcast a while ago. I really enjoyed your story. I hadn't thought much about you since then. I then have since gotten interested into primitive skills and have been looking at flint knapping. In one of the groups they shared your video and the name rang a bell. I was really cool to see you make a arrow head right in front of my eye's and see you and your facial expressions. Your love of prehistory and prehistorical pieces and techniques shows and your face lights up as you share this accent knowledge. From just holding the unformed stone and thinking where it has been to actually forming the arrowhead just the same way they did many thousands of years before. Even though you are a master, you make it with the same passion as if it's the first time. Thanks so much for sharing your love and knowledge.

*one can endlessly watch another man working* / thank you

I always improve my knapping technique after watching your close up videos. Thanks for sharing, and Thanks for the help!

Great to see a new video from you always great instruction on how to knap

What an education we get from this channel, fantastic work as always, you are a master at this, appreciate you sharing with us all, thank you Will, all the best

Nicely done! I need to show you the cache I made. All different types of B & T lol

Hadn’t seen you in a while. Glad your back!

Why are we so advanced yet prefer to live this far simpler life style? Wish I was here a few thousand years ago

Hello will lord i love your videos they are very cool and and i enjoy watching them. ive been subscribed to your channel for about 2 years i wanted to know if you can make a flint dagger video. Im from Texas

Would they have used pollarded ash (to keep them away from browsing animals) for the shafts? You could get a good annual yield of straight shafts off an old well pollarded tree. You could probably strip the bark and smooth the shaft with a notched flint. I was reading in a Bernard Cornwell novel that the Welsh and English archers used pollarded ash and that there was a thriving inter dependent industry making arrows for the army during the French wars.

HEY MR.WILL LORD SIR UVE EVER MADE ANY ARROWHEADS FOR PEOPLE SIR? I'M JUST WONDERING'S ALL SIR. MR.WILL SIR I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE ARROWHEADS SIR AND I'D LIKE TO GET AFEW BLACK,BLUE,WHITE, RED,PINK, PURPLE,GREY, TAN,QUARTZ, YELLOW, AND BROWN ONES SIR.

MR.WILL SIR, I'VEN'T BEEN ABLE TO WATCH U'RE CHANNEL FOR AWHILE I'VE BEEN VERY BUSY AND I'VE JUST NOW GOT TO WHERE I'VE A LITTLE TIME SO I DECIDED TO WATCH U'RE CHANNEL SOMETHING I'VEN'T DONE IN ALONG TIME SIR,SO I'M WATCHING NOW SIR. OH & THX, FOR SHARING U'RE AWESOME VIDEO SIR.

how is glass compared to flint? i work in a glass factory and in my downtime i often try and make arrowheads out of our glass of different thicknesses..stuffs pretty hard to get big flakes

Hi Will, ty again. Hearing your thoughts at an archaeological site will be super. Would you be able sometime to demo pre=copper knapping techniques and tools? The bone and horn 'boppers' I guess would have been prevalent but did they use river stones or other stone types in a different ways? Or were the arrows, knives, and spear heads cruder or larger in shape? Many thx. ->

I PLAY THE WHISTLE....where did you get that one from? those type are expensive,if you find its screeching you have a hole you are not covering properly with one of your fingers its a normal mistake you make when you pick one up for the first time

Prueba con una clovis

much too big to be an arrow head, maybe a spear point, nice just the same
