Sumario:In the UK, skilled flintknappers are very few, and if you want to learn flintknapping there is no one more respected than John William Lord. John has been teaching, demonstrating and sharing his knowledge for many, many years. Numerous times over the past twelve years, I have had the pleasure of working with John and his late wife Val as they set up camp here at Kilmartin Museum, spending a few days at the museum delivering prehistoric technology workshops to a wide audience. Needless to say, the audiences were and have always been fascinated, relishing the opportunity to knapp a flint with expert guidance from John and Val.
