It looks like a knife to me, if you could show

If you could show more pics of the other side and how thick it is it would be easier to tell

A preform perhaps?

Discarded biface. I see a hairline crack across the tip. Also, that area just above the indentation is a fatal flaw. I have buckets of bifaces I found at flint quarries and every one has some flaw that made them reject it. If it was a good one, they didn't leave it for me to find. Gary

Could be any of the replies but could also be a flaked ax or adze blade. Its quite large, very nice find Id be thrilled to find that.
