5 EASIEST MATERIALS TO KNAP (AND 3 TO AVOID) - ROCK SEEKER
From rockseeker.com
Obsidian-Nice And Smooth… Mostly. Obsidian has long been an accompaniment for humans. Obsidian is formed when silica-rich magma cools rapidly, generally upon contact with water or in other extreme conditions.
Glass-It’s Everywhere! Glass works well for the same reason that obsidian does, and has a similar makeup. Indeed, most varieties of glass are more pure than obsidian, which makes it an ideal material for beginners to work with.
Ohio Flint-Colorful, Plentiful, and Easy to Flake. Ohio Flint is a great material that can be found easily online. The formation itself is readily accessible and many people quarry it for personal use or sale.
Novaculite-The World Famous Arkansas Stone. Novaculite is a specific variety of chert found in Arkansas. In this case, it’s a fairly plain grey material that has gained quite a bit of fame.
Jasper-A Fine Material, With Exceptions. It’s no secret that I love jasper, and it also makes for a great material when it comes to knapping. That said, you have to be selective about which nodules you use and you may need to be able to use basic heat treatment techniques in order to have a lot of success with the material.
