Flint is a very rigid stone which will often shatter in flakes when struck. Depending on how the flint is hit, it's possible to get the flakes to shatter with fairly sharp edges, often suitable for tools like knives or axes.
Embedding quotations is essential for you to scrape up marks. For example, if you were embedding the quotation 'hard and sharp as flint' from A Christmas Carol [Charles Dickens] you may say, 'For example, Scrooge is described as being 'hard and sharp as flint' by the narrator. We've put it in the middle of a sentence.
Yes, slithers of which, when broken from a bigger lump (known as 'knapping') have sharp cutting edges.
Obsidian is a naturally occurring volcanic glass that is easy to shape and has been used historically to make very sharp tools due to its conchoidal fracturing properties.
Flint is a very hard rock and forms very sharp glassy flakes when hit with another flint. Flint was used to make knife blades by early man and is the ancient remains of sea sponges and are found in layers in chalk. Flint was also used to generate a spark in tinder boxes(a predecessor to matches) and to ignite gunpowder in early firearms.

Traditionally in this type of sentence, "as" was considered a subordinating conjunction, introducing the partially implied clause, "flint [is sharp]". This matters in practice predominantly when the word "flint" in the given sentence instead is a pronoun: One should write "as old as I" rather than "as old as me". The latter is now used in practice except in very formal contexts (perhaps including language class?).

Any mineral that can be broken (cleaved) at a sharp angle can have a sharp edge. Substances like Flint are good examples
Flint is able to be shaped into sharp tools because of its tendency to flake with conchoidal fracture when struck or exposed to pressure.
Flint is a hard, sedimentary cryptocrystalline form of the mineral quartz.
When you rub steel against a very hard, sharp rock such as flint, it cuts very tiny flakes of the steel off and a high amount of heat is created by the great friction. When the tiny flakes of steel are heated, they combust thus showing the spark.
