FLAKING EDGE MODIFIER
This essential flintknapping tool is useful for modifying (dulling) the edge of a knapped item in preparation for continued flaking activity, both percussion and pressure. An edge thus modified can subsequently accept the pressure of a flaking handle or the percussion of a hammerstone without collapsing or being crushed. Available in two modern material options (which produces less hazardous silica dust) and a more traditional scoria-type stone. DEFINITION
A. Modern Material Item #FKS005A: $3.00
B. Traditional Material Item #FKS005B: $5.00
C. Grinding Wheel Section Item #FKS005C: $4.00

C. Large Item #FKS0014C: $55.00
