Humpback knife and more

Been awhile since I have been able to get out and hunt, but I thought I would show these from my last couple times out. I got a new phone and it seems like the camera is better, I hope it shows in these pics.

That chipped piece on right side of plate sure has some wild color. Camera does take good detail.

Nice finds and pics. Good job. That hump is a "stack" that the knapper could not remove.

A good haul. Congrats

True. But it makes for a much more secure grip than hafting, and involves less effort. I notice that people resharpened the examples I have/have seen, rather than pitching them as defective. Much easier to bear down on.

FWIW

Someone actually asked me if that knife was made that way intentionally. I said I didn't know but I have found a few like that before. I doubt it being intentional though. I would guess Tdog is correct, but it does appear to have been used as it is. That piece of pottery is interesting to me. It is different than any other I have found. When it is wet it's very dark, even dry its darker than any I have previously found, and the pattern is a little different.

Some are deliberately made like that (not knapping problems like stacks).

FWIW
