    Thank you Neil. I found that both captivating and fascinating.
    It is very tempting for 'modern day folks' to look down on their forbears as being of somehow lesser intelligence. That could not be further from the truth. The element of this 'comparison equation', that we conveniently forget, is that we are the beneficiaries of thousands of years of thinking, discovery and development passed down the generations, the sum of which has brought us to all the technologies [by no means, all good!] that we take for granted today. Within the limits of technology available to them at the time, these folks were consummate craftsmen and innovators, far more so than the average individual today.

    The knife reminds me of Ulu knives. I have one that I use in the kitchen, it's a handy blade to use.

    The carp's tongue is one of my favorites and probably will be the one I'll purchase.

    Just found your amazing CZcams channel because of Dan Davis’s CZcams message recommending it!
    I’m so glad Dan recommend your channel, and for some reason you look and sound super familiar and I can’t figure out why! I think you may have been featured in some TV show on archeology, or a documentary of some sort, regardless I’m really enjoying your CZcams channel!
    Very informative, you have answered several questions I have had for a very long time, along with sharing countless other facts and information, and many things I’ve never heard before! Love it!
    Thanks again!

    I love your channel Neil your work is beautiful! Recreating these tools, things like the holdback knife really added to my perspective of the possibilities of how life could have been in those days! Needing such a utility knife might have been impressively necessary, and it feels like the evolution in a stone biface!
    I would love to learn more about the edge hardening technique for the blades! I hear it mentioned a lot but there doesn't seem to be much of an explanation for it!

    • @BronzeAgeSwords

      Its nice when its about life more than weapons and maybe one day i wll do a film about edges

    Can you elaborate on the composition and properties of the Carp’s Tongue alloy?

    Very cool stuff- love your work. Can you tell me please why the axe heads have a ring on the bottom? Like you said, it's for securing, but do we have any historical references as to how?
