Very nice Tn., sweet unifaces...That material of the first blade in the second picture looks pretty similar to that Benton. Nice looking Tn. stuff all around, thanks for sharing.
 

Thanks Thirty7. Now if i could learn to take some good pictures :laughing7: You are dead on about that material. I have only found three examples of it my whole life :dontknow:
 

Honestly those pictures look really good imo. Any idea of the material in the first uniface on the left, the reddish stuff? Sweet material on that one.
 

Its is a Jasper unifacial knife probably from Americus area. I forgot to mention that Uni was kind enough to send me big red and that when we were all studying paleo thru current unifaced blades. That blade technology is identical to local hornstone items here. He is a paleo kinda guy :thumbsup: and had a hankering for Tennessee paleo tools.
 

This blade is very thin.
I need to unglue it from the board.

Here's my largest personally found flint blade, 6 5/8" x 1 5/8". A creek find from July of 1998. Clermont Co., OH. Early Woodland Adena.

Great looking artifacts! You gotta love these artifact shows you don't even have to leave the house to see. These are personal finds from Va. / Wv., not as nice or colorful as the ones I find in the mailbox, but they have more value and meaning for me personally. Keep em coming ...
