Got some heavy rain yesterday afternoon (finally) so decided to take a walk for a couple hours after work.

Scored this neat drill, thought the flat end was a break, but one edge is worked.

This looks like it was a hefty blade, no idea about type or age.

This is another reason I pick up most debitage. This is a tiny flake made into a point

Nice finds , that flake point is really cool and that blade would have been a killer maybe the other half will turn up one day

Thats what I'm hoping, going to go through my pile of broken stuff later and see if anything matches up.

Looks like that drill was actually used for drilling. Appears rounded and smoothed on tip. Is it? Hopefully the other piece of knife will show.

The tip does have the drill bit shape, I'll try taking a decent pic of the tip when I get home.
