Carving
Carving is a multi-level skill taught at the School of Body.
This system is actively under development and refinement. As such, some options or functions may not currently be in working order.
T8 Carving and Knife System Change
In July 2018, an entirely new carving and knife system was introduced, replacing the previous system. Knives have new names and capabilities and some knives can be sharpened.
Old, pre-system-change Knives are still usable. Un-assembled Iron Knife Blades currently can not be made into anything - a fix for this is still being worked out.
Old Flint Knives (previously First Degree) have changed names to the new First Degree "Stone Knives". Other old knives have had "Old" added to the name. IE: "Old Glass Knife".
Wielding
Knives must now be equipped (or "wielded") for use.
:Self->Equipment
Equipping a knife will remove it from your inventory and place it in your hand (silly graphic included), freeing up inventory space. The menu option to unequip the knife returns the tool to your inventory. A tool belt to allow you to carry various tools, though not yet implemented, will eventually be craftable.
Knife Types
- Stone Knife (First Degree) - Made from a Stone Blade
- Flint Knife (Second Degree) - Made from a Flint Blade
- Bone Knife (Third Degree) - Made from a Bone Blade
- Utility Knife (Fourth Degree) - Made from a Sharp Blade
- Paring Knife (Fifth Degree) - Made from a Jagged Edge Blade
- Butcher Knife (Sixth Degree) - Made from a Twice-Folded Blade
