this one is a Sauvie Island basal notch...sometimes called hafted notch. It is very specific to the the area it was found in and although it looks damaged it isn't...just sort of awkward and knapped on a curving flake. But it is a nice agate and the eight year old nearly wet himself when he picked it up. About 1,500-400 BP.

Beautiful Point! :icon_thumleft:
 
Awesome find, this one must be one of your best finds.
 
If a young'un is gonna wet himself, I can't think of a better reason.
 
I bet you saw it 1st but let him find it. 1st to pick it up wins, good job.
 
Nice !!! He will always remember finding it. One of my oldest memories as a kid was my older bro finding a knife blade as we walked across a dried lake bed. We were blown away by it. I was probably about 8...
