Clay started flint-knqpping 20 years ago. He was always facinated by arrowheads he found working on the family farm in Illinois. He wondered who lost the arrow head and what kind of life they lived. In his early 20's he moved to Michigan, went into Jay's sporting goods and saw a modern made, flint knapped knife in a case. He tracked the knapper down and got the name of Michigan Flint-Knappers. He learned so much in the first several years, the "guys" were willing to teach and share information. Norm Blaker, Don Gilson & Mike Cook mentored Clay and he still keeps in touch with them. Clay is a master knapper and enjoys sharing his skill and exicement with anyone interested in learning and listening.
