Could be a crude knife, looks like quartzite and i'm guessing New England area. I am inclined to believe it is just a flake off a stone that looks like it could have served a purpose but was not.......JMO........
 

Its schist and quartz type of matrix. I have a spot I hunt once a yr that the only materials to use are as listed. Quarts, Shale, Schist and quartzite. Yes they were there and the best lithic they had was white quartz. Here is one I picked up not long ago.
This color I posted is the color you want to look for. There should be chunks and flakes of it laying around when you get to the rite spot. Check the big flakes cause most of them didnt get wasted.

Rock, where I am finding lots of things lately is a foreclosed lot on Lake Sincliair in Baldwic County,Ga.The drive is covered with River stones that I am sure they did not originate here,perhaps Tn. I really just don't know.there are so many hammerstones ,pecking stones,etc in this load that was dropped on this driveway in the mid fifty's.I understand some lookers would pass over a hammerstones,for instance,just because they are common,possibly only used one and broke easily.Reading online this morning I learned a new word,I believe it was "rectilage v/s deubutag,the first being a bounch of broken river stones in one reasonably near a quarry.Probably one if not oldest type man used

That type of stone is from N GA towards the mountains. Not much flint in the mountain areas.
