    Flint axe

    Here is a thick flint axe that I found a few years ago. It has a bullseye on the side. Must be some kind of ore vein or something. It still has a pretty good bit. This is one of those that they carved a hole into a wooden handle that was large enough to jam the back end of the axe into. The more they used it, the tighter it got wedged in the handle.

    Re: Flint axe

    The good thing is, it is still going to be there when you go back. It will take a little bit of looking, but you'll find it eventually. I almost ran over one one time with my truck tire. I had stopped to eat lunch and happened to look down beside my tire. It was sticking up out of the ground about 2 feet from my tire. Lunch ended pretty quick....
