This video stream is VINTAGE and is NOT in HD quality. We did the best we could in digitalizing the originals available. The methods and instruction are not outdated. The original video was shot and edited on actual film and sold on VHS, then converted to DVD, and finally converted to a streamable format to better reach new generations. You will see reminders of it's film edited history in our streamable version, however this will not take away from the instruction. We are working to convert and preserve as much vintage flintknapping wisdom and perspectives before the paper and media it is on degrades any further. On behalf of independent authors and producers, we thank you for your support.
