Had a couple hours free this morning befor the Derby Party/Mother's Day madness ensues. Walked a small tributary of the Little Miami River and found this nice little knife. It was actually wedged between two larger rocks in running water and I reached for it before grabbing a true in-situ shot. The pictures in the mud are where I set it immediately after finding it.

Is this Carter Cave flint?

Here's some pics of it after getting home and allowing time for it to dry off:

Here's a couple group shots of all my "keepers" from my morning walk. I'm not certain what that blue/white thing is, but it feels like glass what's been smoothed over by the water current.
