Found some interesting points and tools following a hard rain. Found one of the ugliest axes I've ever found, but I guess it was more for function than beauty.

Some really nice finds that's a good day of hunting ..... I like the axe it's different than the usual. I have an arrowhead that is same color even has the lighter colored section in the middle

Very nice double bit flaked axe. I like it, very crude but would do the job indeed. Il have to look up the Guilford axe as im not familiar with them. Impressive haul of points and tools to accompany it also. Congrats :thumb_up:

Here they call them "Peanut Axes" usually crude and most think they were used as a war club more that an ax used for cutting wood. Im in N GA. I have a couple 1 made from pect wood and the other a low grade green stone. Nice finds and glad you were able to see the ax most dont see them and think they are nothing more than a rock.
