Interesting find. Congrats to him on his find.

Was this found metal detecting or a surface find along a water route?

 

[Buckleberry]

If that's NA, I'd vote it for a Banner!

 

[joshuaream]

That's a really nice example, and huge for the type!

Beautiful copper knife!

I recovered this while excavating an old dump site on my property along with auto plates dating back to 1921.

You or your buddy can find some interest copper artifacts columns in the CSASI journals. Not every journal so check the table of contents.

A column in many is "Red Metal Pounding"

here are some examples:
NATIVE COPPER CHARACTERISTICS DEMONSTRATED IN THE "NEUBAUER PROCESS"
Tiny Old Copper Culture Conicals by E.J. Neiburger
