What were the first copper tools created?
kvn8907 asked:
After the discovery of copper working and before the discovery of bronze, the History channel said that copper was used to make tools and decorations. They showed a lot of copper decorations, but no tools. So, what tools DID early man make from copper? Could they make swords, even if they had to be sharpened often? Could they make axes? Hammers? What tools could they make?

P.S. It was hard to decide what topic to put this question in.

it seems to me that the VERY first things that would be made would be the most simple. a small blade for instance; a knife. possibly an arrowhead; simple tools for hunting/preparing food. tools of war, like the sword you mentioned, would be made later
