Looks like you have some archaic stuff there, your notched point looks like an overused thebes upper mercer flint, and a couple crude archaic knives. I used to live in Grove City in the 70s :thumbsup:

Knives and reworked points--nice finds! Looks like the weather will change for the new year. Hope it is warm in Columbus. I have a lot of family there. Happy New Year!!!
