Aboriginal Stone Knife
Semi precious Jaspers, Cherts, Ribbon stone
from remote outcrops...
These stone knives, tools and scrapers were made in the bush
...as did our ancestors before us for thousands of years...
.....traditional way ... flaked with another stone.....carefully trimming the excess stone away
So my friends don't have to carry too much extra weight ...back over a mountain or over a desert... ;)
Stone tools hafted with Spinifex Resin
.......!..Then hafted with Bloodwood or Spinifex Resin...!!
Spinifex wax.....Bloodwood...Dry Grass and Charcoal...
... to make the hand grip for stone knife, scrapers, points etc...
Aboriginal Stone Knife painted with ochre
and then after all that...they are painted up with Ochres from yet other remote locations...
