Knapping, an ancient art, is a process accomplished by a multitude of various techniques and tools. The main objective involves reducing a stone by removing flakes. This is achieved by either direct, indirect or pressure flaking until the desired shape is obtained. Flint knapping can be traced farther back in time than any other technology. Brandon’s interest began when an older friend showed a demonstration on flint knapping. And because Brandon had been interested in arrowheads since his youth, listening to his friend pass along the details of the flint knapping demonstration sparked an interest in seeing one for himself. A visit to the shop of a flint knapper and the purchase of a beginners kit was Brandon’s next step in the process. Brandon loves sharing his love and the art of “Flint Knapping” with others. Make plans to attend his workshop on March 22 here at Cornwallis 1828 in Braggs,Al 9am until noon. Bring your family and friends.
