I really like using a

forked stick to support
freehand percussion. It
allows long, clean flakes
with feathered
terminations.

These replicas were made by a

rocker punch, not my favorite
technique but clearly effective.

While pressure flaking, I find it

useful to support the preform
with edge upright in a nest of
crumpled leather. This avoids
short bevels and reduces step
terminations.

This replica was pressure

flaked by antler.

I prefer to flute points by direct percussion

while the tip is supported on an anvil.

There are many ways to make notches. This

illustration shows the use of a copper punch.

Here are some notched replicas.
