stone knife
Caveman's cutting tool
A stone knife is a cutting tool with a blade made from knapped or ground stone rather than metal.
Stone knives were among humanity's earliest tools, crafted from flint, obsidian, or chert by chipping away material to create a sharp edge.
Today they appear primarily in archaeological contexts, survival skills, and traditional crafts: He demonstrated how to make a stone knife from obsidian.
