The first pic is a pic of my Clovis. The others I'm not real sure what they are called. I believe most of them are knives, but from what period and is there a specific name for each kind? Thanks

It's really hard to tell just what culture or what age some knifes are because all cultures used them. Unless it has a heavily ground base or is found a culture specific site, like a Hopewell, Adena, or Ft Ancient site it's kind of hard to date them. Sometimes you can tell by the flaking styles and whether the material is heat treated or not(paleo didn't heat treat).

I have seen a few books put out that were knife specific though, so you might to check on one of those.

Check out this link and scroll down a little bit and you will a book on knifes by Lar Hothem. This a great site for books on artifacts.
