Finalising the Shape and Making Regular Edges - 500 Subscriber Giveaway Part 12 of 14
Channel: Prehistoric Living
Date: 2022-04-02

A whole lot more pressure flaking in this one. I'm quite happy with the result, bit of a nail biter for some of those larger flakes, but it all worked out in the end. All I have left to do is finish the base and sharpen/serrate the edges. It's April now, which means the deadline I set for the giveaway has passed, but I didn't want to rush the process and snap the thing in half, that would be a disaster. I decided to wait until the right feeling struck, which should probably be either tonight or tomorrow sometime. Wish me luck!

Thanks for watching. Cheers.
