    Yea im liking that knife too! Looks like a historic period(200-400B.P.) knife that was well preserved,im almost sure its indian as the whites traded alot of raw metal,steel,and iron to the indians during that period.

    That knife looks like a historic blade used by Indians after trading began. That point looks like a possible Folsom preform or incomplete folsom. Very nice!!!!!.................................GTP

    Glad you had a good hunt to tide you over for a while. That knife is really cool!, not many posted on here. Good luck with your knee, have a speedy recovery, but don't push it!
