Modern mans knapping?

[SportsmanAll]

I have a spot close by that has produced artifacts for me before, as well as 1930’s glass bottles and other pieces. It’s not uncommon for me to find arrowheads in with the more modern garbage and such. But this is a new one! I’ve seen on here that some people have found modern glass that has been worked. It’s never been something I doubted or anything like that but when your artifact hunting your hoping for the oldest of old. So I have never really been looking for knapped modern glass. But tonight I stumbled upon this blade, clearly made out of modern glass, and within the vicinity I also found multiple pieces that had been flaked off of it in the production process. Super cool. Just thought I’d share the story and pics. Thoughts if you have hem are welcomed.

I won’t lie either. I’ve used what I’ve learned to make a quick cutting edge when I’ve needed one. The kids “borrow” things from my tackle box, if you know what I mean?

cool find in any case, the mystery is cool too. I actually have a number of glass points from Australia that were made in the 30`s from modern glass as trade items...great material that makes beautiful points.
