Some kind of archaic blade I would say. North American Indian artifacts forum would help a lot.

Very impressive piece. Please post more photos on the American Indian Artifacts forum.

It looks like some form of an Archaic knife.

Moved thread to our indian artifact forum.

As Newman said, looks like an archaic knife with nice patina on it too. Can you please post pictures of other side and the sides/edge too?

Looks like a Sonora flint Cobb's blade knife, early Archaic. The base, where it would of been hafted, doesn't look like it has been resharpened. The top left appears to show some resharpening, need more pictures of the sides and back please.

I don’t have it with me currently this is the other side

The Cobbs knives were primarily associated with the Ohio river valley, Tennessee River Valley, and the Mississippi River Valley cultures, Utah is way out of their normal range found by over 1000 miles.

It looks the same washed, we thought it might shine up a little more but it didn’t.

It looks like a nice archaic cobb blade, but i don't think its senora flint. it appears too non-lustrous and a different color to me for senora.

Is this relic beveled? what is the cross section?

it looks like the relic is beveled from the images.

 

[dognose]

the images look like the same side from a different angle also, from the color on the base flake.

I think most of us believe the photo shows it to be an archaic knife blade and a very nice one at that!
