    My one artifact from the trip...uniface knife

    Well, here it is, a wicked looking knife. It is as fine an example of a uniface knife as I have ever found. Shown here with a modern day .45-70 cartridge for size...



    Never ceases to amaze, how the one side can be so barren, and then the other is like a symphony of detail. To wit...







    Might have been a lone piece, but still very much worth the walk.
    From the looks of the weather this morning there was a LOT of rain in that area last night, so hoping it turned over some new material in the creek for next trip.

    Good hunting,
    BW

    A very purdy knife, BW! We just got 5 inches of rain up here in Oklahoma yesterday and hopefully our creeks were turned over, too.
