I know you did, but I thought maybe someone else may have something to add concerning valuation. I appreciate your input. Just wanted to try the correct forum. Thanks.

Looks like a grooved axe to me.

Definitely a Full Grooved Axe. As far as value, Axes just don't go as high as you think they would. I have seen Axes very similar to that one go for $50.00 to $100.00 at auctions and I bought one at a show last year that was just a little smaller than that one for $25.00.
He would be better off keeping it since he's not going to get rich selling it.

As a member of the "can't seem to find even a small broken piece of an axe" club I can say I am truly jealous.

I agree with Dorkfish on The Value. It doesn't seem fair sometimes that most axes don't go for much money. I mean they spent a lot of time making these Things. I wonder how many points they could Knapp out in the time it took to make one decent axe
I have found only three in all of my hunting, and they are a thrill to look down and see. Here is one that I found last March 08, it is made of Hematite. Its not worth much, but its dern near priceless to me. I know people that hunt points their whole lives(finding hundreds and hundreds of arrowheads) and never find a thing made of hardstone, except for maybe crude hammerstones and things like that. So it was a really good find for your buddy. John
