I am offering these two primitive hafted knives. Lets start off with the first one.
It is a Georgetown flint blade, made from a flake. The handle is cedar I cut in my backyard, and is hafted with Rhode Island pine pitch, and sinew from Wisconsin. Basically, it took half the country to make this thing. Please note, that I am a beginner, and it is not as high a quality as some of the more experienced knappers work. The good news is that it is thin, and very sharp.
Next, is something I call a Winn Paleo blade.This blade was knapped by Jim Winn, a very good knapper, who sells and knaps very thin bifaces, Clovis points, etc. He is Paleomanjim on youtube. I hafted the Obsidian blade to a cedar handle with pine pitch. It is not wrapped with sinew, but I could wrap it is desired.
In return, I will ask for either:
Hafting supplies, i.e pine pitch, and sinew
Knapping stone
Supplies for knapping, primitives, etc.
If you would like more pictures, feel free to ask.
Thank you for looking!
