I got out last week and found a couple whole pieces - along with the usual brokes.

I have to admit, this first one really had me questioning myself if it was a point or just a good looking flake or tip of one. I reached over to poke a piece of flint and while scanning i saw this one. I seriously had to look 3 times just to make sure that my eyes werent playing tricks on me and that what I was seeing was actually a point.

I have found some small points before but nothing to this extreme. It is notched on both sides, paper thin and serrated. I honestly had a hard time carrying it in fear of loosing it. I had to stop by and show PaleoHunter as no picture can really describe the overall size (or lack there of) and quality that was put into this point.

Below are a couple other points along with a group shot.

held that little smoker the other day, it almost doesn't seem real... it's so small and well made. one of the top bird points i've ever seen and held. gotta see this little killer in person to appreciate it. by the way, table rock is a dandy too, nice work 1point!

AH HAH!!!!!!!!!!!! :blob10: I finally found out who you are, 1point. Heck, I didn't know it was you, Jeff. Sweet finds! I find tiny triangles that size every once in a while but notched that size is hard to believe when you first see them. I found a notched one a couple of years ago that was smaller than my little fingernail.
