I'd say that's a good study piece. A backed knife would have that anatomy but I agree that it doesn't show any definite flaking evidence. Jury's out still!

Backed knife is an interesting thought I tried some pics with low angle light, maybe a whisper or two of a scar but still looks mostly naturally formed, except that edge, I’d add it was found up on top a bluff well away from the river and any streams so water action erasing features seems unlikely.

Also interesting the similarities with a piece found feet away
