Went digging for a few hours today. I found three broken knives. It's weird, I seem to find nothing but broken knives in this spot. The thin one is actually pretty interesting. It is obviously curved on purpose. I've found a couple other curved blades like this but am not exactly sure what their purpose is. Any ideas? Are they just another type of knife or was their a distinct purpose to them.

nice finds congrats HH
 
The gray one is a large reduction flake then turned into a knife. I find them but mine are made out of flint. I dont see where that one is broken. The other 2 are tips.
 
Reduction flake turned into a knife makes perfect sense, thanks. The tip is broken. It might not show well in the pics but it is clearly snapped. As for the other two, the grey one is a tip but the red one is a triangle that is missing a corner.
