When a flake is detached from its parent core by either method, a portion of the cone of force caused by the detachment blow is detached with it, leaving a distinctive bulb of applied force on the flake and a corresponding flake scar on the core.

Blades and flakes can be modified into tools, for example scrapers and burins, which are created by a burin blow on the tip of a blade which produces a chisel-like edge which may have been used for graving and carving wood or bone.
