Simplified core reduction methods for Burin Cores. Left. Start with the selection of thick technical blanks, the IF, and then the reduction that generate typological variations (step 1: angle burin on breakage, or truncation, angle dihedral burin; step 2: straight dihedral, polyhedral or multiple burin; step 3: multiple dihedral or polyhedral). Right. Close up on the reduction method (multiple angle dihedral burin; bidirectional along the longitudinal axis of the blade)
