The black one and the one on the far right in your hand have always been my two favorites. They just don't get much better then those two.
 

i like the agate one in my hand also
well actually all four in my hand
thanks reap
stevie
 

I like them all, but I have to agree those four in your hand are great:headbang:. The agate one is nice:unhappysmiley:. that one with the broken tip would have been a killer if the tip wasn't gone:dontknow:. Sure some nice point's Steve.:icon_thumright:
 

Steve is right...they don't get much better! I believe these are on the level of Cahokia and Spiro points! :)
 

The Mandan pocketknife is my favorite....(haha, jokin) Excellent points. What time period do these date to?
 

this site has been occupied since the pelican lake , oxbow, duncan hanna times and before
which is at least 6000+ yrs BP
but i think the majority of these artifacts are 500 or less yrs old
and yes the Mandan jack knife is one of the most rare pieces i have ever seen
i have only found one in the last 26 years..and do not know of any others
 

Nice ...Quality flint knapping
 

Beautiful artifacts Steve.:icon_thumleft:
