The black one and the one on the far right in your hand have always been my two favorites. They just don't get much better then those two.

I like them all, but I have to agree those four in your hand are great. The agate one is nice. that one with the broken tip would have been a killer if the tip wasn't gone. Sure some nice point's Steve.

Steve is right...they don't get much better! I believe these are on the level of Cahokia and Spiro points!

The Mandan pocketknife is my favorite....(haha, jokin) Excellent points. What time period do these date to?

 

[larson1951]

this site has been occupied since the pelican lake , oxbow, duncan hanna times and before
which is at least 6000+ yrs BP
but i think the majority of these artifacts are 500 or less yrs old
and yes the Mandan jack knife is one of the most rare pieces i have ever seen
i have only found one in the last 26 years..and do not know of any others

hey RGINN...i just remembered that i did find ONE other pocket knife back in 2010

 

[flintdigger]

That is a fantastic ancient pocket knife steve, I bet the original owner was proud of that one.
