In addition to gathering sticks and twigs on the ground, sticks can also be obtained by breaking leaves with your fist. Once you have a number of rocks and sticks, you are ready to start Knapping. Knapping is a process where two rocks are hit together, to form a particular shape. In order to knap, first hold at least two rocks in your hand, then right click in the air, which will open up the Knapping Interface.

A Interface de Talhar.
In order to knap a particular item, you want to remove squares until you form the desired pattern. For example, create a knife blade by matching the recipe shown to the right.
Like crafting recipes, the location of the desired pattern doesn't matter for the output, and some recipes have multiple variants that are valid.

Todas as cabeças de ferramentas de pedra podem ser craftadas com um graveto ou galho para montá-las.
A faca de pedra pode ser usada para colher Palha quebrando plantas.
Machados podem ser usados para derrubar árvores inteiras, incluindo folhas. No entanto, as mudas e os gravetos só serão obtidos se as folhas forem quebradas individualmente.
Shovels can be used to dig soil type blocks. They can also be used to create Paths by using them on Dirt or Grass.
Hoes are useful tools for Farming, but they can also be used to cut down leaves and other plant matter.
Hammers can be used as Crushing weapons, but are more important tools used for Forging.
Finally, a Javelin can be used as a primitive weapon, capable of being thrown at targets, or used as a Piercing weapon.
