Alright guys, this weekend was my third time out at my friends ranch and I came out the best. I found a 4.25" COMPLETE knife blade!!!!! I also found a another broken point. I'll show yall some of the stuff we have found the last couple times out there. Please leave you input as I am still learning and absorbing all of this. I'm addicted!!!

That is an awsome knife! Looks sorta like a haul I get from Del Rio, Tx---definitly some nice finds ;D
 

Hey drumking, I checked my Texas field guide and I guess if you just had to call it something "pipe creek" would be about as close as your going to get. But like Matt said, they didn't have a fixed guide. Sweet finds though. FYI I'm using A Field Guide to Stone Artifacts of Texas Indians by Ellen Sue Turner and Thomas R. Hester ISBN 0-89123-051-3 Razor
 

The third picture looks like a broken piece that was salvaged for a spokeshave. Look in the crescent for minute edge wear or polish. As Matt said these people were very utilitarian in their tool use.
 

Great finds and great pics. They are in super condition. Keep up the great work.
