Looks like the top one was busted while making a point and used it for a crude scraper.

the first [4] photos look like a lot of points, blades and choppers that have stacks or humps what every you wont to call it that the maker could not get to flake off.. a lot of mine around camp sites have fire pops, looks to me like throne in the fire. Terry

of all the net weights i've seen, including mine, there doesnt seem to be any intentions to make them look pretty or out of special material. if they really are net weights, the loss or breakage of one would be to simply pick up any flat rounded rock, put a couple crude (quick) notches on it, then tie and use! Just my opinion. heres a pic of both sides of my net weight. 1/2" thick!
