The first two on the bottom left are knifes I think? The larger oval one a scraper or perforator?

Nice quartz points. You must be in the Southeast ? Points like that are found in upstate S.C., sometimes.

About 90% of what I find is Quartz. I do also on occasion find some chert points, but chert is not native to the area. But, some of the Quartz pieces can be very nice too. I find a lot of larger sized Quartz spears and preforms which I think are interesting and probably pretty old.

Those are great finds! Love the quartz points and find them in Western NC too.

Its the other way around here very few quartz but plenty of nice flint like the stripped 1 in my avatar I found a couple of years ago. I love the skunk flint dont find much of it here and it was traded from Jasper GA which is about a 1.5 hours away from me on the road. Probably a week by canoe at least. Most of the fields I hunt has flint in it traded from other places.

The thread is over 3 years old. As well, most surface hunters are naturally protective of their producing spots.....
