Slow connection? Watch in lower quality
Simon Bowbar from Prehistoric Bronze explains the bronze forging process of creating a prehistoric knife. This specialist skill is rarely practised in the modern day and gives us insight into the life of our Iron Age ancestors.

That was a very interesting video. I wonder how well a bronze knife will take an edge and hold it. You have inspired me to try this. ATB.
Fascinating. Glad there’s people doing this. Great video.
Please tell these guys to make a YouTube channel. I'd watch their stuff like crazy!
Always good to see you at the shows !!
Keep it up .. Bob (experience the iron age }
If I understood correctly, we have a group trying to recapture the skills in a few years, that took hundreds of years driven by necessity. Worthwhile? Definitely! The way humanity is going, we will soon need all the help we can get.
Does he have a YouTube channel?
Love that perspective
Very cool video great craftsmanship
