Let's see your favorite arrowhead

[RedRiver]

Don't show the most expensive or rare one. Just your favorite. I like the working man and hunters points so I'm showing an old Montell that's been used and sharpened for all it's worth.

i think i have a story with almost all my points, can remember the thrill and spot i spotted them at

 

[theviking]

Do you suppose this was a repaired damaged point?
Whatever, its a very cool find!

I think it was just resharpened on one side, almost looks like a spokeshave. I'll get a better pic of the blade when I get a chance.

View attachment 1713038Tip is gone, and it was in two pieces, but still my favorite!

One of the most beautiful personally found Cody pieces I have seen posted on this forum.
Glad to see that you left the tip as found.

If I had to pick maybe this one. It’s nothing rare or exceptional but it’s how I found it. I had found a pair of fallen trees in the woods and there were flakes washing out of the root ball. I had took my screen out and was bringing tons of flakes and the occasional tool. One day my dad was out with me and I told him about the spot and walked over to show him and I picked a patch of ground completely at random and in the first shovel full this popped out. My dad couldn’t believe it. He likes to tell the story about what a lucky sob I am and how he watched me walk to the middle of the woods, sit down and find a point in one scoop

Love the story. Never lose that point! It will help you recall (in vivid detail) a living moment with your dad someday when you most need it. That makes it a very valuable treasure.

Your story made me think of this one which is another one of my favorites, more due to how it was found than the point itself. Many years ago, me and another fellow were looking a site where a lot of earthmoving was going on. He had bought himself a brand new flat-pointed shovel. We were taking a break from digging just standing there talking and I said, "Let me check out that new shovel, man." He hands it to me and I made a flat shave across the top of the ground, then a second pass when this flipped out of the dirt. He was like, "Gimme my damn shovel back!" I won't elaborate, but fast fowarding a few years made me realize that this couldn't have happened to a more deserving SOB.

While deer hunting back in the 80's approximately two miles from my home, I saw this point lying in a small branch of a nearby creek. Not much chert in my immediate area so this made my day! A southern Hardin as thin as a cracker...

Thanks Dennis! At least I believe that's you based on what I've seen you post and your location!

It's hard to pick a favorite but I like the Desert Sierra points a lot if we are showing true arrowheads

 

[Older The Better]

I love those , wish they were around my area they gotta be one of the nicest looking points.
They look deadly I bet they are still razor sharp

My wife wanted me to put in one of her favorite arrows. Eastgate or Rose Springs-2 1/2"

 

[sandchip]

Killer, Wels. That would put a hurtin' on.

 

[welsbury]

Thank you sir. Wife used to be a go-getter on the points. Not so much now.

 

[newnan man]

Sorry for the late post. I've been busy and then went on vacation for 2 weeks. This is my favorite because it's the last point my younger brother found in Florida. He found it in Okaloosa Co. in the 70's. Not sure exactly when. He was visiting relatives and scratching around a creek flowing into the bay. He passed away in 1994 & I have most of his finds from Ohio & Florida.
This isn't a real nice one but it is special to me.

 

[yakker]

What kind of question is this! Favorite?? Ha! My favorite point is that last one I found!! ; )

 

[quito]

That’s another way to look at it yakker!

 

[old digger]

This is my favorite small one.


Found it between the vehicle ruts on a trail.
