Flint shops knife

Reproduction of a flint knife found in the "cueva de la candelaria" (America). The blade shops is made of Danish flint, enclosed in a painted charming wooden handle. The blade is fixed with prehistoric glue (mixture of pine resin, coal and wax). The blade is fixed so that it detaches from the handle if too much pressure is exerted to prevent it from breaking, because flint was a precious resource during prehistory.
