Talk: Make a Stone Flake Cutting Edge

Tech Level 0

Last edited · 151d3d8 · tewelde

Purpose

Discussion for improving stone flake instructions (material selection, safe technique, and validation).

Open questions

  • How do we describe “good knapping rock” without using geology terms readers may not know?
  • Should we add a minimal “blade handling” section (wrapping, safe grips) as its own Level 0 article?

Proposed improvements

  • Add an SVG showing strike angle and where to hit the core (arrows + simple shapes).
  • Add a short “field test” checklist for rock selection (nail catch, fracture surface, durability).

Decisions

  • None yet.
