I am not a expert but it look's like a flake knife to me. It will be interesting to see what others have to say about it.
 
Flake knife / utilized flake. I think a lot of times what some people call pressure flaking on these is actually use wear / damage from use as a utilized flake. They're cool, I keep nearly all of them I find, several of which I prize enough to have them in display cases.
