First id like to say Hi and I am very impressed with this site. I'm new to MD and Ive been out maybe 4 times I found a (what is it ?) the other day need help. I live maybe 4 miles from Cassville GA. Union forces had been set up maybe 2 miles from where I am now on May 19th 1864 , this object was found about 6 inches deep on the side of a old road-trail in the woods behind me. Any help would be great . The second pic is of the end it has a curve to it.

Welcome to Treasurenet myke124...

I dont know what you have there, but I hope it keeps you going back and diggin' for more!

It looks like iron... do you think it is?

Good photos. Is it sharp or once was sharp on one side? Then the obvious would be a knife of some type. Could even be a piece off a wagon. Its been in the ground a long time.. Welcome Aboard!

Yes its a lil hard to tell from the pic but its iron, about 9 inches long looks like its broken off of another piece , someone told me it looked a lil like part of the blade of a bayonet the other side is real smooth sept for the rust.
