The Stone Blade is a sharp blade knapped from flint. It is a primitive knife head and an early cutting tool.
Its main uses are Assemble Crude Knife, which fits it to a Small Handle to make a Stone Knife, and Bind Spear Head, which ties it to a Long Stick for a Spear with Stone Head. The blade also works as a knife on its own for crafting. The work belongs to Knapping and Maintenance.
The blade is knapped from a Sharp Flint Flake. It also turns up in anthropology classroom displays and survivor safehouses. The Carpenter is the best occupation for materials. It starts with the most Carpentry skill. For Welding, the Welder starts strongest.
Uses
Assemble Crude Knife joins the blade to a Small Handle with a binding. It needs Maintenance level 1 and makes a Stone Knife.
Bind Spear Head ties the blade to a Long Stick or Sapling with Zip Ties, Leather Strips or Twine. It needs Maintenance level 1. Bind Spear Head With Duct Tape uses Duct Tape and needs no skill. Bind Spear Head With Wire uses Wire and a pair of pliers. Each makes a Spear with Stone Head.
The blade also counts as a knife in crafting recipes that call for one.
Research Craft on the blade teaches Knap Long Stone Blade, Forge Simple Blade and Carve Fleshing Tool.
How to Get Stone Blade
