I just thought it would be fun to show you all my junk, that i have found over the years... maybe by looking at my broke points it can help show folk's that are just getting into hunting a chance to know what to look for when they go out...these are real crude and some would have been nice if they wernt broke :'(... feel free to resize my pictures.lol im having trouble with that sorry for pics being to big.

I hope looking at all this will help the folks just starting out, and now yall can know what to look for.
 
Yep, looks pretty typical of the area your in. Lots of the red chert from the Sulphur River area. I hope your segregating your brokes as to site found. You might be surprised at what may fit together. Its really paid off for me through the years!! :wink: Heres an example

that looks like alot of walking there,thanks.im new to it and have seen many like yours here in tenn.got a couple this weekend,one i thought was broke but a nother hunter there told me it was a bird point and good at that..jamey
 
yeah I am seeing quads and crecents. Beautiful material.
 
I see several whole pieces in here. A couple nice paleo tools, including a sweet limace( I bet uni has eyeballed that one ) I'd hate to think some of those are getting busted up by piling them all together. I haven't seen this guy post in months, anyone know where these nice materials are from.
 
i got alot of pieces, and broken points. i put the in a display case and put them in my office. get alot of comments about them, and have gotten some leads from people that have seen them on areas to hunt :icon_thumright:

that is a lot of trophies you have there. A whole lot of looking represented and much finding. :thumbsup: Would like to see more, like Moe Howard said..."spread out!" and take many more pics.
Thanx,

A limace, aka slug shaped scraper is an early scraping/fleshing tool associated with the paleo culture. I've read site reports of the Vail site(clovis site) in Maine where many where found. I dont know if they were continued into other periods, uniface probably knows, I'd be interested myself.

A Crescent is a knife mostly used for skinning IMO, put one in your hand and feel the way it could be used....
 
Nice variety of materials, I sure would like to go through that stuff & frame some.
