Magazine: Tool Use of Early Man is a recipe magazine about stone age tools. It belongs mostly to Knapping, with a few Carving and Maintenance recipes.
Reading it teaches eight recipes. Knap Large Stone Axe Head, Knap Stone Blade, Knap Stone Maul Head, Knap Stone Blade Scythe and Remake Long Stone Blade shape stone. Sharpen Bone and Carve Fleshing Tool work bone. Bind Spear Head ties a blade to a pole.
The magazine turns up mostly in anthropology classrooms. Book stores and university libraries hold it rarely.
Uses
The knapping recipes keep a hammerstone, mallet or knapping tool. Knap Stone Blade needs Knapping level 1 and turns a Sharp Flint Flake into a Stone Blade. Remake Long Stone Blade also needs level 1 and turns a Long Stone Blade into a Stone Blade.
Knap Stone Blade Scythe needs Knapping level 2. It fixes a Sharp Flint Flake to a Tree Branch or Medium Handle and makes a Stone-Blade Scythe.
The heavy heads come later. Knap Large Stone Axe Head needs level 4 and Knap Stone Maul Head needs level 5. Both start from a Large Smooth Flat Stone.
Bind Spear Head needs Maintenance level 1. It ties a blade to a Long Stick or Sapling with two Zip Ties, Leather Strips or Twine. Almost any knife, a Stone Blade, a bone point or even Broken Glass works as the head.
Sharpen Bone needs Carving level 1 and makes a Sharp Bone Fragment. Carve Fleshing Tool needs Carving level 2 and turns an Animal Bone or Large Animal Bone into a Bone Fleshing Tool.
Reading the magazine also eases boredom and stress. A read copy still has a use as padding. Make Magazine Body Armor and Make Magazine Limb Armor accept any magazine as crude armour.
