Here's my take for the last 3 hunts in Missouri. I had quite a few other chunks and parts, but didn't add them in the pic.

This knife has quite a bit of basal grinding:

This little piece also has quite a bit of basal grinding and awesome chipping.

This little guy is really weird. It is beveled, like a knife, but so smooth on the edges from use, that it's hard to see the chipping near the tip.

May your next hunt be your best hunt EVER!!!

Really ice finds steve :icon_thumright:

....

I lived in Columbia Missouri for little over 20 years and hunted all over Central Missouri....It is a treasure trove of artifacts there. I loved hunting the small creeks and streams, especially the ones that were spring fed.......

I know many want believe me, but my best day point hunting, I found 40 whole points in a creek after a 8 inch gully washer the day before......Found more then that, that were broke, some were recent breaks judging from the patina. They were everywhere in the creek behind anything that caused them to drop out of the flow of the current......... :icon_thumright:

They are all impressive finds. I have wondered on the little triangle that is dull on the end. Maybe it ended up after much use being a scraper? The base being the scraper part. No telling what they were doing as they wore their tools down to nothing sometimes. I imagine the woman using and also making tools around camp as needed for the hunt and gather thing. :hello:
