Frog Knife

So it ain't a knife a frog carries in his? OK, I give up. Where does the frog carry his knife?

i've heard volcanic glass is sharp enough to split a frog hair.

There's a perfectly good reason you didn't know those things;
Frogs can't afford backpacks let alone knives, because of the price they have to pay for those custom down jackets to survive the Alaskan winters. :D

Ah....OK.....That seems to make since........I think.

When frogs do make the....leap and buy a backpack and knife it usually ends up costing them a leg and a leg.

A leg and a leg? I give up, quit, surrender. Ask a simple question and get a price quote.

Price quote.....no - here's what I meant. Leg and a leg as in....

and of course once that happens the end result is something like.....

I think I see Jesus in that rock.

Thank you for those frog legs,and i saw a guy split a frog with a hatchet one time but I dont think a frog could split a frog.mabe my frog knife was for spliting coconuts?

Hey erunkis, they are giving you quite a hard time, aren't they?

I really don't think your rock is an ancient tool. I has a vague tool-like shape to it, but no indication of any man-made marks. You could, however, make it sharper and it would then be your own tool.

Really! Maybe a more suitable name would have been erunkischraliebrown!
Im no expert, but to me a knife is anything that will cut anything else, I have ten knifes on the ends of my hands that I employ regularly and I'm also pretty sure the any native american would have used the tool that cut the best, that may not always have looked like a typical knife but it was no less a tool of survival. Was your rock used by native americans? Who gives a flippin' flitter! It could have been and you saw that, congrats.

It's a flitter flippin rock that vaguely looks like a frog if you squint your eyes and hold your mouth just right during a lunar eclipse on a Saturday in flitter flippin Ocala Fl. after you've licked a couple of cane toads.

Wow...what an interesting thread! I saw a rock like that up in the mountains of Alaska a few years ago, only it was sharper, and more gray, and I think it was shale. It didn't look any where near as much like a frog as this one though. I left it on the mountain.

It does have a sharp edge on it,my Frog has sharp feet. Some of the "educated" people that I have talked to about it said that it was probably used to cut Grasses.

Thank nyou for telling me that, that helps to establish that my stone is not singular,and that others used that design as a standard tool

I probably wouldn't have tried to use it to cut grass. Then again, I am not that well educated.
Must have taken all day to do the lawn with that small of a blade.:D
You going to shine it up or keep it stealthy?

It is a rock! That it is sharp and fits in the hand well is whole interesting thing. Rocks are like clouds or art, even if one person sees the bunny or frog doesn't mean that anyone else can see it...or that it is even there.:eek:

Hmmmmm. Bunny.......maybe.......

I have used the tool and it cuts grass poorly,,

Hey, I thought you liked rocks...with a little Captain Morgan and a splash of pineapple juice?

coconuts, grasses, bones....who cares. I want to know who these "experts" and "educated people" are that you were talking to.

I agree with Crash, its still just a rock to me. This thread did give me a few belly-aching laughs though. Love it.

A Natural Science consultant? for what, the museum? marketing? etc, etc. :confused:

The other lady was a peleo entomologist:
Entomology is the scientific study of insects, NOT rocks, (or glass). :confused:

erumkis, Give it up. You are not going to convince anyone that it is anything other then a rock. Your perseverance makes for good comedy but it is destroying your credibility.

try skipping it over water, if on the last skip it doesn't sink...it isn't a rock and we can start all over

Thats right, a Bug Lady.She realy offered the most info on this object. I was able to narrow down the dating with what she said. And The consultant was The official spokes person for Cambridge University at Boston.

Allow me to correct this statement.

If dogs looked like fur, then your rock would look like a knife.

However; Dogs look like dogs and your rock looks like a rock.

Can someone in the congregation give me an Amen?

Amen brothe....Amen!

Now dogs carry frog knives? Well, if everybody says so. "OK, Muttley ! Up against the wall, this is a strip search, take off that fur coat." I ain't having an Attack Trained Beagle armed sleeping by the door.

OK, When a black rat looks like your next meal and a hole in the ground look like a way to save you from dieing of exposer, Then your rock will look like a tool.:cool:

What info did the bug lady give you that helped narrow down the dates? Was it used to smash insects too? And what does a university spokesperson know about anthropology?

It doesn't look anything like volcanic glass. It looks more like a basalt. Neither of which would have been found in any of the areas that you are talking about the "Cherocavemen" using it. I've looking in several anthropology texts that I have access to and I have found absolutely no reference to anything called a "frog knife." I am thinking that either someone is pulling your leg or it is a super secret conspiracy to not let us know about the existence of the frog people.

All rocks are rocks when you use a rock any rock it is a tool. So rocks are rocks and rocks are tools. The rocks that are on the ground are just rocks. The rock in your hand is a tool.
