took 1,000’s of years to replace stone blades
Bronzewas the first metal widely adapted by
early man.
It required the
melting of metal with bellows, so it represented quite a different
manufacturing method than knives made of stone, hence it took 1,000’s
of years to replace stone blades.
Once the
capabilities of bronze knives became more widely known, bronze knives
replaced stone knives.
