Now I just have to know what it is.
Went to the Eva bar today. It’s a long walk but always worth it. Water is getting low now and as it drops I find more. No hard stone yet but I’m hoping. Looks Archaic to me and is made from a quartzite. I still have to clean everything up. I will post the rest another day. But I’m interested in the type of this one?

I don’t know what it is but it’s a pretty one, my two cents, it looks like it may be heavily resharpened with the shoulder on one side erased

I have to check the other side for bevel might be why that side is different. I believe most knives were hafted sideways and the bases were used instead of being hafted at the base. jmo, thanks

Sounds like it’s not going to give up its story so easily
I know maybe I can find another one but being a creek find it might be tough. I was looking at it last night and it has a stack on one side. Not saying it’s a Copena but that’s one of the characteristics of the type plus the base is ground. Hopefully someone will know if I make it to the next show.
