Horse creek, what are you in the horsepistol for? Hope all is well with you and nothing serious! Get well soon! I was cutting wood and a branch in a tree flew at me when I made a cut. It hit me in the lower abdomen and gouged a quarter size hole in my sigmoid colon. 9 days in ICU but on full liquids and recovering well. And yes a colostomy but can be reversed in a couple months. I always feel someone else is worse off than me because it’s true. I’ll be darn near 100% by November and that’s most important to me. Yeah I’m taking horse pills at the horspital! LOL. Thanks for asking Lee and yeah I still love your draw knife! Wow, hope everything turns out good!!!!

It looks like a Rice Lobed/ Jakie Stemmed bifurcate, or a MacCorkle if found in the east. A really nice old point, way before pottery or even stone bowls were used. Rice Lobed Link

I know bigfoot. his word is good. if he says it was found and its not a counterfeit you can believe it

I have never felt a new (counterfeit) arrowhead that felt like an old one. Just rub it between your fingers; a new one will feel sort of rough, and old one will feel waxy.

Thanks Danny for the character reference. I have no reason to mis represent this point or any in my collection they are not for sale and will never be for sale as long as i am alive .If I could napp somthing that good i would be proud of the accomplishment and not pass it off as authentic (some indians work ). And if it belonged to my Napper friend I would be proud that he had trusted me enough to give me one of his creations and not misrepresent it as somebody else's work.

Have seen and handled alot of artifacts and have seen them similar to yours. In my opinion it is a variation of the Fluted Pedernales from south Texas.
