I just love all the stuff, i keep coming back to look. Mainly that blade, but the others stuff is great too. Do you know anything about the blade, like who might have made it, or the material? It looks very well made.

I agree on the sloth tooth I did not see it on the table. The cat tooth that I was talking about is just above the bison incisor. What is that wood thing on the right a net gage?8) 8) 8)

the black bone looks like a fire charred buffalo bone
the one with the points on it could possibly be a dibble for planting beans or corn (just a guess)
that sure is an awful nice looking plate of stuff, just plain brutal
good going there frank

It's certainly not bear, and I don't think it's cat, either. To be cat, there'd have to be more space under the crown in the image for the other root. No, I think this is an unworn (in life) dire wolf carnassial with the talonid broken away.

The more I've looked at this tooth, steve, the more I think it may be a lower molar (m1) from a large cat -- say Smilodon or a jaguar. Here's a jaguar jaw for comparison:
