About

Hello! I'm James,

full-time prehistoric man, I am a prehistoric skills expert and experimental archeologist. I have years of Flint Knapping experience creating replica stone tools and I'm currently the resident knapper at the world famous prehistoric site, Creswell Crags. I am very active on Instagram, so come and see what I've been making!

Explore the Shop for replicas you can buy, hand made by me using prehistoric techniques, or get in touch if you would like an item made to order.

Do get in touch for any enquiries.

Flint knapping courses coming soon!
