I went looking for small pieces of flint in the creek. And look what I found. It was burned out in the ice and I poked it with a stick and though I could make a nice point with that piece. But somebody beat me to it.

looks like they beat you to it by a few hundred years. Nice find.

Looks like a nice scraper john! Very cool! Big A and I went on a rock run today on Pappys creek and found a hand axe! Couldn't belive it. Anyway, you gotta love finding what the old ones worked while out looking for new ones to work

Hand axe that is cool too. Hey do you ever wonder if indians went arrowhead hunting. I could have been 500 years back back in time and picking up flint and found the same thing. I wonder what they would think. Did you find any good flint Will?

That's a nice scraper. I enjoy finding scrapers, hammer stones , as much as points. Nice find. If only it could talk.

I was arrowhead hunting with a friend & he asked me "I wonder what the Indians thought when they found an arrowhead?" I asked him what he thought when he found someones spent brass. He said " guess someone shot something.". I said there you go!

Yeah I know what you mean
We did! Picked up a bucket full of some "Pappyite"
Anthony kept most of it to learn on but I did find one hand sized rock of some high grade black stuff that I kept. It turned into a nice big dovetail
