In this Masterclass, participants learnt to make primitive utility tools such as hand-axes, scrapers and arrowheads from brittle flint with master flint-knapper, primitive technologist and archaeologist Karl Lee.

Karl started our workshop with a demonstration of the techniques and processes involved in flint-knapping, before setting participants the task of making their own flint tools using ancient tools such as hammer stones. He has over 20 years of experience of teaching the manufacture and use of stone (lithic), bone and wooden tools.

Green obsidian knife ready for action. The handle actually fits the hand either side up, but this way is a bit better. Has a useful protruding pommel that can really put a dent in a skull.

Top view of green obsidian knife. Pretty thin blade, free from divots and steps, of which I'm rather proud.
