Our ancient Hominid ancestors began working stone some 3.5 million years ago. Through millenia, their skills became more and more refined. Eventually, stone tools would come to define the human species enabling an epic migration around the planet. The Stone Guild is the most ancient of all
Guilds, here you will find the skills of grinding and shaping stone, percussion, and pressure flaking of knappable rock as well as hafting and weaponry. It’s important to follow safety precautions with stone reduction. You can experiment with simple bashing techniques on the river banks, but as a general rule you will want to keep your Flint Knapping in a reserved area called the Knapping Pit. Here you can keep all your tools like leather pads, and goggles. The tiny flakes of stone that are produced from Flint Knapping are often sharper than a razor blade.
