I found this one recently, I thought it had a cool shape and felt like sharing. I am guessing it is a knife? What are your thoughts? Thanks!

That is the perfect February find! Is there flaking on both sides? It almost Looks like a cordiform cor(Latin for heart) hand axe. I'm still learning so that may be way off, but it has similar characteristics.

Nice!! That looks like some extremely difficult material to work with.

Hard call on that one maybe a scraper...

Could it be a core that they started to work into a point but did not finish ?

No kidding! It's amazing to see anything made from that kind of quartz into a usable tool.

I looked up cordiform hand axes and there was a good bit of similarity between what google images pulled up and the piece that I found. Of course I have no expertise in identifying artifacts I just love finding things, but thank you for giving me a thoughtful and accurate response.
