Yep. I like to think of modern chimps as being at the same level of evolution our ancestors were when they began to:
It's going to take a few million years before they make assegais.
fashion weapons for hunting: Long thin sticks for hunting termites, sticks with a sharp angle/hook at the end for hunting grubs, and sharp pointy sticks for hunting monkeys. They fashion a new weapon every time, on the spot, but when defending themselves or the group, if they use a weapon, they just pick up whatever is handy on the ground and wave it around.
