✅ SOLVED Spear and axe?

Found these earlier in the year when I was plowing. I'm assuming the one stone piece was an axe or club?? Not really sure.

It is the dumb end of a Full grove axe. Nice find!

I looked and looked for the other half. No luck.

Way to go!! Nice ones! The blade (not spear) looks pretty big! How long is it?

About 6 inches. So your saying it's more like a knife?

I think so and I agree. Nice finds.

Would have loved to see the rest of that axe .... that looks like a really wide groove can only imagine what rest would have looked like

It certainly does have a wide groove! I'll bet that bit end is nearby. It would be interesting to see how it tapered from the groove to the business end.

Judging from the other plow strikes, I'd say a plow broke this artifact. If so, you should be able to eventually find the other half. Unless another collector already found it 30 yrs. ago. Good luck! That piece has amazing polish. Gary
