Uniface Florida Blade

2 1/2 by 1 1/2 Hillsborough County Florida. This one sliced one of my fingers pretty good. The price we pay sometimes

Nice looking point. It looks like heat treated Costal Plains chert.

Nice on Mike, I always had this theory that they wanted to keep a thin edge as it was resarpened..That’s the way to do it...every larger collection usually has a few..course, the argument against that is, they’re conserving flint, and the argument against that is, they were knee deep in chips...Hey, don’t pay any attention to me this morning I feel a little spacey, Lol...Nice knife.

Years ago when i was showing relics to the fourth grade class at Woolwine Elementary, i was showing how a piece would be used to cut meat and laid the palm of my hand open in front of the class. The kids loved it but not as much as when i sat my beard on fire demonstrating bow drill fire making. Very Nice piece!

I bet if you ran into them today they'll remember that, cool story Steve.

Thanks Quinn, it was my first uniface point, I found it when I didn't have much knowledge about artifacts. I actually thought one of my friends was playing a trick on me.

Thanks Hal, I tried to get the best pics of the secondary flaking on the edges, my camera wasn't having it. I'll always pay attention to what you have to say, spacey or not

Thanks for checking it out Newnan, I believe it is.

I have been pulled over twice by deputies that i didn't recognise that mentioned remembering me bringing relics when they were in school. No tickets.

I know Culbreath points are not typically unfacial but I wonder if that is one! Nice find.

Culbreath Projectile Point

Very possible, I found it at a site that I found a Culbreath, and a few Newnan's and Marion's.
