I’m busy knapping when I’d rather be napping.
It’s bullshit. I had to carve my own tools. Why do these entitled shits get to just buy tools now?
How can you even trust the quality?
Well, I can know for sure that the guy I buy my copper tools from does only high-quality.
Horrible right?!
If I make my tools I atleast know they are terrible!
Really still living in the stone age, I see, eh old man?
Melting rocks is dumb when you can just chip them.
Metalworking is an addiction that makes us dependent on Big Furnace.
Each technology makes humankind more enslaved to the mistakes of its ancestors.
A late bloomer? Folks have been snapping since Homo Habilis. My great^54 grandpa told me they used to gather flint and they would find the right rocks after walking uphill, both ways, backwards, in the snow.
I’ve been watching Donny Dust on YouTube. Now I’m gonna be sourcing some flint this spring.
Check out primitive technology
Haha, already subbed. I bought his book when it came out too. Great channel!
Ok Gramps, im done eating wild berries! Kids nowadays eat bread and drink beer!
Kids these days ain’t tripped on cow shit mushrooms. What’s the world coming to
Aurochs might have gone extinct, but cubes are still pretty popular
No one can destroy the Metal
The Metal will strike you down with a vicious blow
We are the vanquished foes of the Metal
We tried to win, for why? We do not know
16000 BCE kids too
I’m not into paleo.

I remember when reed baskets were invented. Everybody wanted one. I kept bones in mine.
Nothing beats obsidian. You’ll see in a couple thousand years when people are still using it.
I don’t know how you guys work with obsidian. I thought flint flakes were sharp but you pick up the wrong shard of obsidian and it will cut your finger clean off! I mean I get that you can kill game more easily that way, but I’ll just stick with a flint-tipped spear and an atlatl.
To be fair, I’d rather use obs for hand tools - cutting, skinning, scraping, notching. Shit’s expensive, yeah I have some obs spear heads “just in case,” but I’d rather not shoot them off and maybe lose them if I don’t have to.
