COMBINATION BURIN / SCRAPER This combination Burin / Scraper was found on the Termo-Pialat site in Couze Valley in southern France. It's an excellent example of a multi-purpose tool. One
end is trimmed for use as a scraper, the
other end is trimmed as a burin that could be used for engraving and the remaining edge is trimmed and could be used either for scraping or cutting. This blade tool was made
from a very good quality white chert. It measures 2 3/16 inches (55mm) long. |
