Tools have always been made with materials that were available at the time. In prehistoric times, tools were made from simple things, since that is what was available at the time. Most tools were made from rock, shell, bone and wood.
Stone tools are most representative of the times, since we still find evidence of those today. The stones most often used were chert, flint, chalcedony, quartzite, jasper, and obsidian. These rock types, when struck with another rock, piece of antler, or bone, will fracture or break in a characteristic pattern called a conchoidal fracture. This creates a rock fragment called a flake. If fractured correctly, the flake can be used as a knife or tool, since the edge is as sharp as a modern razor blade.
With the the continual flaking of flint, a knife or arrowhead could be fashioned that was sufficient to kill game, till the soil or even chop down trees.
Back in prehistoric times they just used stone, more or less.
Stones, they were made of flint on the stone age. The probably also used sticks but these will not have been preserved.
Prehistoric people made tools by shaping stones. They used the tools to then cut the fur off of animals to make clothing, but they also cut the meat off to make dinner.

Developmental stages in prehistoric human beings are generally differentiated by the types of tools they used. For example, stone tools were first used in the Stone Age.
