Finally found a couple nice pieces with so much rain everything was flooded so I went to a field I have found some nice ones before. These 2 are the nicest of the finds. The knife hits rite at 3.25 inches and is intact which in a field that they disc it just happened to be laying the same way they run the tractor so the disc has missed it. I sure was happy to see it just barley showing and as I pulled it out it just kept coming and I was glad it came out whole. Its a black flint with some white and brown mixed in. Its going to look good in my frame. The grey one has a impact fracture on the tip and they reworked it into a hafted scraper I believe it was a Adena Robbins when whole. I dont find many in this grey color. It was a good day in Georgia this week. Hope others are still able to get out, rock

You got that rite I have found so many would be killers in the fields just to find them in half. I guess cause its long and narrow it escaped the disc. But if I hadnt saw it the next disc probably would of gotten it due to it so close to the top after all that rain.
 

Looks like you have a good spot. Nice finds!
