An absolute killer Abbey my mom saved from a ditch earlier this week. Her first point ever.

Excellent, looks like a early stage one.

Good one!

Nice save Mom!
Fine serrated finish on those edges. Interesting how the blade is recurved on one side and nearly straight on the other. Based on size and obtuse point -I'm guessing it was a hafted knife?

I would assume hafted knife. And as antmike stated, an early stage. The middle center point on both sides is very smooth, almost can’t even even see the flaking. I believe it was used as a knife which resulted in the extremely thin and serrated edges. As well as the curve you pointed out.
