Those are all very nice points but that Bolen is really something else.
 

All beauties.
 

Glad to see them all, those notches and seriations are really nice. The second to last has some different shaded inclusions.

Shell I think, that one was heat treated. I've found some of the same material raw; it has a weird texture to it raw. Patina doesn't set well with it in that condition. Sometimes it has a greasy feel to it and sometimes it feels bone dry.
 

All beauties! My understanding is that a concave based Bolen Beveled is rare. We don’t have anything similar to that up here. One of those types that just didn’t travel this way.
Love it!

Thanks MA, this is actually one of the bigger Bolens that I've found (could be a Big Sandy).
 

You've got to have an awesome collection mike. Not always easy to have something to say about so many awesome points. I always look at your posts. Thanks.
