THIS POINT WAS FOUND IN PITT COUNTY NORTH CAROLINA BY ME, THIS POINT LOOKS LIKE A GUILFORD, BUT IT ALSO HAS A LITTLE FLUTE AT THE BASE. I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY OPINION ON THIS POINT.

I resized it for you. It wasn't easy to tell. Now I see it better. It's definetly a Guilford, they often show slight basal grinding.
Savanah Rivers are very simular but, if you have many of both types like I do, then you can see its a Guilford. The Guilfords are slightly wider at the arch than the Sav River..
Nice find.

Wild looking ! What is that material?
 
I agree with Molly on Guilford, an early Guilford Yuma imo. Lower grade materials seemed to be a favorite of the Guilford culture, for whatever reason.

Maybe banded slate?
