What do the bases look like on 1 and 2? They don't look like Dacaturs to me. Can you show pics looking down at the ends of the bases?

The middle Point could be an exhausted Stemmed Kirk Serrated Point.

its shows all kinds of good stuff in your area.take them too a show and ask around about the types is the best way cause they can see them better pictures are a little misleading at times.im sure the indians didnt call them what we do today anyway.

The smaller one could be a Decatur since it shows the basal fractures/burination that are common on this type. Even though the other looks like it has the fractures I have never seen a stemmed Decatur.
