That's a great Knife, and those are some fantastic materials, and I see an arrowhead too. That little white guy is what they commonly stuck in buffalo and points of that size were usually found on the end of an arrow shaft. Not saying it wouldn't kill a bird, but *bird points* are just an in-accurate description of what are just everyday all purpose arrowheads. The larger points are usually dart points or knives.
 

Nice finds! Your going to have to separate them. And move your camera closer. Macro setting makes good pics!
 

Looks like three nice arrowheads and a knife blade. You did good with a nice assortment of materials. As been mentioned "bird" point is a name that modern man gave those small hunting points.

If you think about it next time put a quarter next to your points. That will give a reference to size.

ok thanks guys, I need all the help I can get, I bought a book to help out as well.
 

The knife on the left looks like a Harhay but better pic's would help. that would be a four sided knife with bevels. The small point depending on size would either be a Pelican Lake or a desert corner notch. The two on the right are most likely cottonwoods the far right looks broken. Material would depend on which side of the state it was found, and better pic's would be necessary.

Nice finds! Thanks for sharing!
