Nice one's! Sure looks like it could be a palmer to me.

I think that Palmer fits it nicely. Good research!

How thick is it? Any Palmer I've ever found here in NC is paper thin. Shape looks close but it could be a Kirk too. Nice find!

Does it have basal grinding? If so, Palmer is a good guess. Just feel around the base and check if it feels smoother than the blade edge. That's the best way I can describe it.

Nice find! It sure looks like part of the Palmer- Kirk family. This link talks about the evolution of Palmers to kirks, I realize it is from N.C., but I think should be relevant to V.A. and M.D as well. Thanks for the view.
