A Posey County, Indiana, collection, the flint a high grade of our Hoosier Harrison County Hornstone, 2&1/8" by not quite to 1&1/4"--the heavy beveled edges indicating a much longer blade as-first-made--some very skilled pressure chipping as the blade was repeatedly sharpened. The point easily qualifies as a Knobbed Hardin--very strong basal edge grinding on this 7500--8,000 year old Early Archaic Culture point--a knife, actually, not a projectile. One way you know that is the edge impact fracture on one blade side (see the closeup)--you twist a flint knife under too much pressure, you get a "torque fracture...it could happen on a basal corner or on a barb--could be the tip will edge fracture if that tip hits something very hard (bone) at just the right angle. Here, the edge fracture is from barb's end upwards about 1". A VERY simply guarantee: so long as I'm alive the piece is guaranteed authentic. Shipping is $9.00, payment can be by check or money order, but please note I do not use paypal-type services--Roy A.
