KnapEasy Rock is specially formulated and designed exclusively for flintknapping, creating an easy knapping experience for beginners and experts alike. The spalls are designed to create ideal platforms for easy flake removal and strategy with minimal waste. Not only are these great learning materials for beginners, but are quick, consistent, and sharp materials for expert knappers and primitive hunters.
Why did we create KnapEasy? Why not just use regular natural rock? Any old-timer knapper will tell stories of large quantities of premium stone, ripe for the picking. Over the years and the growing popularity of flintknapping, as well as the over-pillaging of both private and public resources by stone suppliers, those vast quarries of premium rock have been significantly depleted. It pains many experienced knappers to see beginner knappers turning premium stone into gravel. Likewise, beginner knappers require a high quality material in order to learn efficiently. A beginner knapper that only uses junk stone won’t see the results they are looking for. So, now we see the plight of flintknapping and the depletion of premiuim rock resources. KnapEasy is made from very common earthly components (totally natural) and produces much less waste. KnapEasy is a perfect solution for beginners and intermediates to learn on to both gain valuable experience in working a high-quality material, but not feel bad about pulverizing expensive premium natural resources.
