Section 372

"You all know it even if I don't tell you. For felling tasks, the most suitable tool is the stone axe. The stone axe is very useful and can be used throughout the entire survival process. It can even become your third hand and build anything you want to build for you."

"The most powerful production tool in primitive society is not just a name..."

While chatting with the audience, Lu Yu was already sharpening the stone knife on the reef.

Swish!

Swish!

Swish!

"Only wood with good hardness can handle the stone axe. So, in order to facilitate the subsequent grinding work, let's sharpen the stone knife a little bit..."

Controlling the drone, aiming the camera at the reef.

Lu Yu explained word by word:

"The reefs on the beach have been washed by sea water for a long time, so the surface granularity and hardness are just right, which is very suitable for sharpening blades..."

He tried his best.

It took about twenty minutes to grind.

At this time, the blade of the stone knife is completely different from before.

Abnormally smooth and sharp.

"Huh, it should be fine... OK, let's go."

After returning to the shelter, Lu Yu took a short rest and went into the jungle.

After searching for a long time, he found an oak tree with good growth.

Oak wood is very hard.

It is also tough.

It is the best choice for making handles, knife handles and furniture.

After selecting the target, Lu Yu climbed up the tree and stabilized his body at the crown.

Then, he picked a branch of the right size and started chopping with the stone knife.

The sharpness of the polished stone knife is indeed extraordinary.

Although it is not as good as an outdoor knife, it also greatly improves the efficiency of collecting materials.

In less than five minutes, a section of oak branch of the right size was cut off by Lu Yu with a combination of chopping and kicking.

After jumping off the tree, he picked up the trunk and checked it.

The wood quality is good and the thickness is just right.

Very good.

There should be no problem.

So, Lu Yu measured the length and used a stone knife to cut off the head and tail of the tree trunk on the spot, turning it into a small wooden stick about 50 cm long.

The wooden stick is thick at the top and thin at the bottom.

It has a curve.

It is also very comfortable to hold in the hand.

Then, after returning to the shelter again, Lu Yu used a stone knife to polish the bark on the surface of the wooden stick and cleaned off the burrs and uneven places.

"In this way, the handle of the stone axe is ready..."

"Next, just find a suitable axe blade and insert it into the top of the wooden stick, and you're done."

A lot of flint can be found in the reefs on the beach.

So, there is no need to worry about the stone.

However, it will take some time to find one that fits the shape of the axe blade.

He picked and picked all the way and looked around.

It took more than ten minutes for Lu Yu to find a suitable one.

The flint is black all over and its shape is similar to the axe blade.

The surface is extremely smooth.

The size of the tail end is just right for the wooden stick.

"What we need to do next is to connect the axe blade and the axe handle together, dig a wooden hole of the same size as the axe blade at the top of the stick, and then insert the axe blade into it."

"How to do it?"

"It's actually very simple. Don't be stupid enough to use a stone knife to dig. That would be too stupid. Here is a time-saving and labor-saving method that can easily solve this problem."

Sitting down by the campfire, Lu Yu said as he picked up a piece of firewood to break up the fire and took out a piece of red-hot charcoal.

"The method is to use charcoal. The temperature of this thing is very high, enough to burn a wooden hole at the predetermined position of the axe handle. How about it? Isn't it much more convenient than using a stone knife to take the shape..."

At first, the audience didn't quite understand the mystery.

But after Lu Yu said this, they immediately understood it.

They all shouted, that's it!

"666, I got it!"

"Oh my god, anchor, you are such a clever guy!"

"Awesome, your IQ is as high as 250?"

"If it were me, I would never think of such a clever method!"

The charcoal is neither big nor small.

It is almost the same as the place where the axe handle is inlaid with the stone blade.

As long as it is placed on it, I believe it will not take long to melt it into the desired shape.

No matter how hard the oak is, it is still wood after all, and it will burn as soon as it encounters fire.

So, as soon as the handle came into contact with the charcoal, the surface began to turn black.

After a while, it began to turn red.

Seeing this, Lu Yu kept blowing air to help the combustion, while adjusting the angle of the charcoal with a small wooden stick to ensure that it burned along the predetermined trajectory.

This step is also critical.

Always pay attention.

Otherwise, if it really burns through both sides, the axe handle will be useless.

Soon, because the temperature is high enough, the concave hole on the wooden handle becomes larger and deeper.

Finally, it finally becomes a long strip.

Seeing that it was almost burned, Lu Yu picked up the stone blade and placed it on top to measure it, and found that it could be inserted just right.

"When burning the wood hole, be careful not to burn the hole too large, otherwise, after the axe blade is installed, it will become very unstable."

As he said, Lu Yu aimed the axe blade at the hole on the axe handle.

After knocking and chiseling for a long time, he finally combined the two together.

It became a stone axe.

The stone axe has a beautiful shape.

It looks beautiful too.

However, this is not the end.

In order to make the axe blade more solid, Lu Yu found a dead wood and chopped it hard several times.

Using the reaction force, the axe blade was firmly embedded in the hole on the handle.

Until the gap became negligible, he picked up the stone axe and looked at it, and explained to the camera:

"Because of the shape of the axe blade, one end is big and the other end is small, so during the chopping process, there is no need to worry too much about the axe blade coming out of the hole. Of course, if it is convenient, it is best to use a rope to fix the connection between the axe blade and the axe handle, which can increase the service life."

When making clothes before, there were a lot of straw ropes and bark ropes left, which came in handy now.

Lu Yu said and did it.

He took out two pieces of straw ropes in his hands, and then used a cross method to press one by one, and wrapped them around the connection between the axe blade and the axe handle, and finally tied them up.

After a busy time, the stone axe was completed.

Lu Yu waved it in front of the camera, showing everyone the new weapon in all directions.

This attracted the cheers of countless viewers in the live broadcast room...

"The axe is well received!"

"Wow, it's so cool!"

"It feels like the Stone Age!"

"Damn, Yu Shen's hands-on ability is really unbeatable!"

"Yu Shen's handmade work!"

"This is amazing!"

"I beg you to buy the same one on Taobao!"

...

To be honest.

It's really not easy to make a stone axe with bare hands under such harsh living conditions.

The entire production process, at first glance, doesn't seem that complicated.
