Bifurcates, Let's See Yours Too

My computer was down for a while so I haven't been able to post much lately and especially any pictures. I put this tray together about a month ago. I decided to pick through my trays and get all of the better Bifurcates and put then together in one tray. These are examples of all of the types I find in my area. There are LeCroy, Kanawha, Lake Erie, MacCorkle, and Stanly in there. When I first put it together there were 98 Points in there and that's what you see in the picture. I have since added a few and there are over 100 in there now.

If you have some examples please add to the thread. I'll add some I have from other states too.

Thanks for sharing. It's an amazing collection Museum worthy. I enjoyed looking at all of them

Not sure if these are considered true Bifurcates, but these Texas Montells, Predenales, and Frios all have the basal type.

The black Point in the top center is Bifurcate type from Virginia.

Well, Steve, that's a killer collection.

The first one far left is from Ma., remainder personal finds from RI. In New England, the MacCorkle variation has a broad, shallow bifurcation. The last one might be considered an eccentric.

Great examples Charl. Thanks for adding to the post.

Those are all very nice points. Are they personal finds?

Most all of the ones in the first tray are personal finds The others are ones I collected while putting together my States Collection.

Hmm. Not a common type up here.

Nice ones guys! Here's a few from central IL I found, 1rst pic. : Lecroy and MacCorkle , don't know what to call the large right one except, crude.
2nd pic.: slightly bifurcated stem archaic knives ( type unknown to local resident Arche's), all 3 found in a couple of minutes in a 20' circle. Next a.nice Hemphill, and very well made Neuberger with broken bifurcated base.

Great thread and examples. I will try to dig some local ones out tomorrow night

I have a few more. Can't put a finger on them at the moment. If I find about 8,000 more, I'll almost have as many as Reaper! Nice collection Reap!!

 

[SCrocks]

Some from S.C. and a couple others in the pictures

 

[The Grim Reaper]
