The flake axes are some of the period's characteristic tools. They were made from flint by striking a thin flake from a flint nodule and flaking it, so the edge became sharp. The flake axes were especially used to work wood, among other things to make boats, houses, and other tools. They were practical because they were relatively easy to produce and could be sharpened or replaced.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zoll Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57156695392580,"sku":null,"price":300.0,"currency_code":"DKK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0258\/9412\/5630\/files\/IMG-8696.jpg?v=1787841189","url":"https:\/\/zollantiques.dk\/en\/products\/dansk-stenalder-asymmetrisk-skiveokse-i-flint-sen-ertebolletid-4500-3900-f-kr-1","provider":"Zoll Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
