where did it go or am I losing it?

Am I wrong in thinking there used to be a separate forum here for knappers?

Yes you are loosing it . No you are right. What happened is we combined the artifact section all together instead of having all the sub forums that were over lapping each other. What we did loose though was the specific place for modern reproductions but they are welcome here and many members do knapp. Ben/Bsit still post's some of his work.
I enjoy seeing the skill cause you learn a lot from Knappers.

I know knapping is a skilled art but doesn't it flood the market with non authentic artifacts and make the people finding real ones facing more questions from people?

It has always been an issue but many skilled Knappers do not sell as originals but some people that buy re sale. Look at e-bay. If you keep a collection to just your area and what you find you limit yourself and your collection. You start buying provenance and authenticity can be tricky.
