Well thanks for bringing me back down to earth ..... lol that’s an impressive display do you believe these are all from same time frame / era ? If so have you narrowed that time frame down ?

Thanks I think drills are mostly the same though out the ages. I have more still searching old files trying to sort things out.

Most of these are in the case posted. The perforator / Drill in hand was found on a dry lake bed old overshot flaking on this one.

Very nice frame and pics of drills and perforators southfork.Think you are correct on "drills" looking a lot alike through the ages. Unless it is made on a rechipped point like Quito's specimens then it is very hard to tell age.Your's from N. Cali. are identical to mine for the most part.
i will gather some of mine up and show them too in the future. Thanks for showing....
