The domed copper capped head with soft lead core provides a forward weight feel to run those nice long, thinning flakes.
A nice medium between solid metal billets and soft antler billets, copper bopper style billets will 'pull' a flake off of a stone core leaving less damage and micro fractures in your piece than many of the alternatives. Great for heat treated material and obsidian.
This small modern precision knapping billet is perfect for finishing edge work and shaping on small to medium points and blades. For primary thinning of a stone core we suggest larger billets.
