Some Tennessee flint

I got to looking at some stuff from my collection i dont think i have shown. None of these are personal finds . The largest corner notch was a gift, i acquired the rest they are all tennessee finds. Just something to look at on a rainy day here. I hope everyone finds something killer on there next hunt.

Beautiful pieces, love the color of them and hoping I'll find one in the creek or anywhere someday since I have found quite a few gray flint flakes. Thank you for sharing the pics of those beauties.

I had not thought of any of them being a jacks reef but i do see the one has a five sided look but i dont think its pronounced enough to be anything other than a knife

Those are all beautiful pieces! I have a really nice two tone chert knife that was given to me by a friend and although I didn't find it, I really enjoy having it. I use it a lot for cutting hay string and feed bags. Far better than a modern day knife!

Yep.... It's to large to be a jacks reef pentagonal. They are usually the size of a Guntersville or a large Hamilton. You have some purdy points i recognize some of that chert.

Agree with tnMountains. More likely a woodland knife. Classic material and types for the area. Nice collection.
