worked "black glass" and French gun flint

[GatorBoy]

Well I'm very excited to say the least that I finally got permission nailed down on a property I've been looking at for years.
I had a chance to quickly walk the property today just eyeballing to get a feel for where I would like to spend my time when I get there on Thursday with my metal detector.
Too bad the musket flint is broken but it's the blade type so it wasn't that thick to begin with

Used the same as any chipped stone.
