Maybe, but if you're right about the flint pieces (point & left scraper) having tha same coloring.

nice finds

i think natch was referring the color of the krf in the side notch point compared to the scraper with the flat bottom
krf comes in shades of very light (like the side notch and the flat bottom scraper) to very dark (scraper on right)
to even darker approaching almost black
btw, the scraper w/the flat bottom looks like a broke..........but it ain't
also, this #25 awl is the 2nd highly ground pulley awl you have found in week or so, and man is it shiny!

hey natch, no need to be sorry
we knew what you were talking about
i shared a couple of those nice points you sent me with twitko
we both say thanks much

i knew that there was a lot of different types of flint across the country but had no idea that there that MANY kinds
i am learning that the KRF really holds a sharp edge for a long time as compared to others........am i right?
maybe we could get a thread going on this subject as i feel like i might be taking this thread into off topic
