If someone copied that in another medium, and enlarged it greatly, it would be displayed somewhere on a pedestal as art. Hey!....see ya later, I've got something to do! Really a neat one steve.

Lars!! i can not remember where but i read somewhere that the arther though that this point was made to be halfted with one point out, when tip broken point rehalfted with new point till that point broke and do it all over again! third broken tip throw used up point away. Terry

Hey Steve,
That thing looks like it was made by the "Mitsubishi" tribe. I am still drooling over the stuff you sent me. I shared a few pieces with my brother in Kentucky. He really appreciated them. Thanks again.

That's really cool ! Is there a top / bottom (end) ? to these or can any of the points be the tip?

rich
maybe the first image shows a little damage to the lower left which makes me think that it could have been the tip,
but i don't really know
what do you think?

Only a percentage guess, but if there is damage, it's most likely going to be to the tip - so my guess would be that one with the little ding.
