More points and stuff.

More.
The perfect tiny one shaped like a triangle with the cut outs was in a green holder separated from the rest.

I like the black one because it's so smooth and worn.

Nice collection.

Any ideas on age, location...if they are real or not? I have no clue.
I hope they are real because they're so nice looking.

Curiosity, where did you get them?

In a cookie tin on a shelf.

I'm sure they are authentic, several show signs of wear and resharpening.

Okay. So since these were in with what could possibly be a Folsom it makes me nervous not knowing what they are.
Is there a site I can use to help identify them other than scanning Ebay? I have a few charts for local artifacts (thanks Molly) but these are mostly from elsewhere. All I got was the cryptic"out west years ago" for a description. The guy wasn't really interested in them which is why I got them.

Also, would this count as a found cache? I did blow the dust off the tin they were in...they were forgotten...

OK...we can deduce where some are from and get an idea. Let's start with the birdies. The red and white ones (alibates). They will be from western Ok, NW TX, SW KS, or NE CO., they are Washita focus. The Alibates looks somewhat grey/blue and translucent..which would tell us that perhaps its a Day Creek variety - known for Oklahoma panhandle and surrounding areas. The two white pieces of chalcedony / agate could be luna agate, known to occur in the fringes of NM and surrounding areas. The tan quartzite of the large harahey is also right for the area. The cherts pictured do occur in South KS, and throughout alot of Oklahoma. As far as styles, typical of the area; Samantha, Washita, Grand, etc.

At least some of them, I am sure came from around the north central to northwest Oklahoma area, to southern Kansas.
