Chert (also known as "flint") is a microcrystalline to cryptocrystalline, quartzose sedimentary rock. It can have a biogenic or chemical origin, but may also form other ways. This chert sample is "Western Onondaga" chert from New York State. It comes from a Middle Devonian-aged limestone succession. Such rocks are widespread in eastern America, but go by other names (for example, the Columbus Limestone of Ohio and the Jeffersonville Limestone along the Indiana-Kentucky border).

 

Western Onondaga chert has occasional disseminated, microcrystalline pyrite and what appears to be small patches of barite (?).

 

This material is knappable - the arrowhead seen here was made by a modern knapper.

 

Stratigraphy: Onondaga Limestone, Middle Devonian.

 

Locality: undisclosed site between Buffalo and Rochester, western New York State, USA

------------------------------------------

A "knap-in" used to occur twice a year at Flint Ridge State Park in Licking County, Ohio. Folks from around America would stay for a weekend to demonstrate their knapping skills and show off the resulting creations. "Knapping" refers to whacking hard, very fine-grained rocks (usually siliceous) to make various objects - typically arrowheads and spearpoints. The raw materials are usually flint, chert, and obsidian, but also include opal, mookaite (= radiolarite), and manmade glass.

 

The knap-in no longer occurs at Flint Ridge, because (long story short) the new head of the park is a jerk. The event now takes place at the Coshocton County Fairgrounds and is called the "Coshocton Flint Festival".

 

Seen here is a speed competition at the end-August 2024 Flint Festival. Participants have 10 minutes to make a finished point.

 

This point was made by a modern knapper using greenish-gray obsidian, a rare color.

The mighty knapper and his arrowhead. It's that watermelon seed sized he's holding in case you weren't sure.
