Clothes-pin knife

Here's a little item that's pretty slick. Not all flint blades were worked, some were simply spalls, so here's a peek at a way to easily haft and reuse spalls...

Yes Sir!

Now that is a pretty cool little knife.
Is it meant to be a replaceable blade?
Definitely looks handy and usable.

The paleolithic utility knife or boxcutter with replaceable blade technology.  Very forward thinking.  Sell the handles cheap and mark up the replacement blades! 
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

That one I sent you is a medium size.  I call in my small game tool.  They can also be made for large spalls and are very effective in gutting and cleaning game.   That way you can use spalls from all your biface stages or stone reduction.
