Trying to knap bottles into arrow heads is something i've been struggling with for a couple of months.While it could be argued that it is a redundant skill,it doesn't make it a useless one to learn.I find it a fun (though frustrating) pastime.And while i believe i won't ever have to do it in a survival scenario(though you never know),neither do i think i'm wasting my time trying to learn how to do it.
After all bottles are everywhere,i can't guarantee i'll be close to some plate steel, a hacksaw and a file if i need to make up some quality steel broadheads.A useful survival skill? as useful as making an improvised knife to my way of thinking
