Thought a single-bit ax was the only one made by early man.
There I go thinking again.
Wonder what else they thought of first

Thanx, for the welcome, Tn Mountains and Likely Guy.

Yes, flint. Unsure if fully formed, but if unfinished it was by the ancient tool maker. Impact marks on both edges indicate use by someone.

Very nice. Did you dig/find it yourself?

West Central Texas, picked up by a family member, I can't take credit for these two.

Thanks for your interest.
