Make your own primitive-style stone blade knife. Kit includes: 3-4" stone blade, antler handle stock, rawhide hafting strip, hide glue, and instructions.

Use the Stone Blade Knife with Antler Handle Kit to create a one-of-a-kind stone-bladed knife. Blade color varies in shades of off-white, gray, and brown. Total blade length approx. 3 to 4 inches. Professionally-knapped blade made in USA using percussion and pressure flaking techniques--no import knock-offs here! Handles are naturally weathered and cracked white to off-white antler. This kit produces a collector-grade stone knife that can actually be used.

This is NOT your ordinary stone knife kit! The antler handles are naturally cracked from weathering but are the type a Native American would use for full utility. Our instructions suggest surface treatment and waxing the project to make a museum quality reproduction.

Kit includes:

Finished 3-4 inch stone blade
Rough-sanded weathered antler handle stock
Rawhide hafting material
Natural granular hide glue
Instructions for gluing, hafting, and finishing project
Sold individually in sealed poly bag

Project is a good introduction to the basics of using hide glue and hafting materials. Instructions detail several ways this kit can be assembled to look new or old, methods for modifying the handle and blade, and other assembly and finishing tips. No two kits exactly alike!
