What state is that in?
 
Really neat piece Mogi.

Pardon my ignorance, but is a hafted scraper a re-use of a broken point? Or is it it's own thing altogether?
 
I live in Jackson County MO and I found one very similar to yours. I found it on a creek bank with three small points after a heavy rain. That portion of the creek wall had collapsed exposing them. They were all covered in a dark grease. I always assumed it was from a decayed deer pouch. The one that is similar measures 2 1/8 inches long by 1 1/8 wide. The three small "dart" points measure 1.5 inches for the two longer ones and 1 inch on the shorter. The notched object is thinned in the middle. Haven't figured out what mine is either.

BEAUTIFUL COLLECTION my friend!
 
Thanks! Its just one of 5 frames, all from the same creek. I have 150 plus points from this one creek as well as lots of scrapers, pottery, brokes and heartbreakers and I've only been hunting this creek for the last 13 years. The last 4 years I haven't been able to go out but a handful of times each year with work, kids and honey do's, lol. Have everything from Dalton and Grahams Cave to Historic, so long occupation. Love this creek.

I do know this much, Mill Creek in Kansas has some of the biggest catfish I've ever seen in my life.
