Question

how did Indians make there knives i would like to know please best answers gets alot of points i think

Answer 1

they would sometimes take two rocks, and use one rock to chisel the other into an extremely sharp knife. also they used old animal bones and chiseled those into knives.

Answer 2

The Hawaiians used extrusive igneous rock, which was glassy and, if broken on an angle, sharp. The Egyptians used the same thing. The Inuit would used a knife called an "Ulu". The blade was made of slate or bone shaped into a semi-circular shape and the handle was made of bone, antler, wood, or ivory. It was mainly used by the women since they were the ones who did all the cooking. The Haida used knives made of bone and wood, they specially made crooked knives to carve totem poles, boats and other carving projects. The Plains Natives also used bone to carve knives. The Australian Aborigines also used bone. So after reading this we can safely say that bone was the most versatile and favourite material to carve knives.

Answer 3

Knives? Points? Good one.

Depends on when and where the knives were made.

Before metals were discovered the native peoples used some animal bones and teeth but mostly rocks which they chiseled into an extremely sharp object.

Answer 4

Mainly out of ivory from the teeth of prehistoric animals.
