I have heard of this type but never seen one posted. Impressive!

also anything over 3 to 3.5 inches is kinda rare these days.

That’s cool, makes you wonder if they ever thought points were special based off of the pattern in the stone, for example that one kind of looks like astrological scene, maybe it was a moon blade used in ceremonies…. Just some early morning wild speculation but fun to ponder.

Nice bullseye on that

I’m sure when they had time to show off their skills they did just like we do. I believe that they used the ugly ones for hunting

I've often thought it looks like the moon circling the earth on that blade.

Almost said that too but I wasn’t sure if they knew the earth was round, but I definitely see it with the smaller circle

That appears to be Indiana Horn stone, and the bulls eye pattern is common in that material, as it is typically nodular.
