That's why we need more pictures. It's hard to say whether it is or isn't from just those pics.

That is creek rock it will feel grainy to the touch after it is dry. Comes in black and gray in my creek. The "knife" is a limestone type and a dry pic will show its grayish in color it to will feel grainy.

No signs of it being worked by man at all in pictures. Looks like a pointed rock is all...

With all do respect I disagree. Please post a picture of something vaguely similar.
These were found today, same spot.
Rock, I'm not in or near a creek. And top row are all dry and grainy, and the first 2 are from the same type rock as the "knife"

Aw man... there's six pics of a hand that are shown.
The eye is there for noticing shapes and edges , but the material and how worked does not fit in my not finding much in the way of artifacts opinion.
Lots of stuff out there makes for closer looks though. Nothin wrong with that , or stuff gets missed.

I don't personally have any examples. I rarely keep natural stones.

If they occur so often I'm sure you will be able to use the Internet to find an example. I've tried and can't find a thing.
