Rutter Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 As i was sitting in the back of a contractors truck i work with, and I was checking out his tools. I pull out his chisels and they may be the worst thing I have ever seen. Its funny the week before he made fun of my sharp cheap chisels. This is a pic of his "real nice sharp chisels", lol Now I know why he did not want me using his chisel 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hugh Jass Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 These are the super rare saw series. instead of pushing the blade forward, you hold it straight and saw left and right of the work surface. The dumber you are, the better it works. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically Caveman's tools are far, far sharper than anything we can make in modern times. Obsidian. In fact a lot of surgeons are using it again for superficial surgeries because of it's superiority to any man made blade, leading to faster healing and minimal scarring even though it's not approved by the FDA for use on humans. It's that good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any real contractor knows that your chisels should be sharp. Whoever owns those should be fired lol He is self employed. He does a lot very good work. He is one of the biggest contractors in the area. He is also the contractor in the Philadelphia airport. He does well for himself even though he has bad chisels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obsidian simply slices the cell walls right in half. The closest thing we can produce to even come close is diamond blades, which are like $700 a pop and still have weaker performance. There's no comparison. The difference between the finest steel and obsidian is said to be 500x sharper. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that good. If you've ever handled Obsidian arrows or whatever, you know how sharp this stuff is...and it's easy to make a sharp tool, basically you hit it with another, harder stone and it flakes off. What's left after a strike is a naturally sharp tool, you can literally take it from there and go skin an animal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea I could cut myself with spork, I'd decline to even hold obsidian, probably find some way to slice my jugular open with that crap like a scene out of Reanimator. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have them someplace, one seems like it was dulled somehow(but still sharp), the other is like a razor blade. Seems like something fun to mess with...if you're REALLY careful. You really can't put into words how sharp they are, I've seen videos of them chipping pieces and cutting leather like it was soft butter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
