Re: slow board, a couple of what am i for discussion

Not a Kinney, so you think it's paleo? Any signs of basal grinding?

Re: slow board, a couple of what am i for discussion

Top looks like a gaghan, And bottom looks like a hare biface. I'm not real good with blade id so I'm more than likely nowhere even close. I'd call them nice whatever they are.

Re: slow board, a couple of what am i for discussion

What area they from ?

Re: slow board, a couple of what am i for discussion

These points were acquired, so i don't know their exact origins, however the first one came from a south texas collection and the second came from a hill country estate. As far as basal grinding, i still don't know what that is, after all these years of collecting. The next time i go to see my friend Fred, i'm going to get schooled on basal grinding.

Re: slow board, a couple of what am i for discussion

I'm all guestimated out, , , but they are really nice examples of whatever .

Re: another couple of favorites

The 1st point might be a Pandora, the 2nd look's like an Angustora & the 3rd some type of worked down Kinney knife.

Re: another couple of favorites

Ah HA, I remember seeing that Angostura a long time ago. . magnificent knapping craftmanship.

This past spring I found a nice one too. . .

Not near as finely crafted as yours but still a very pleasing design.

Re: another couple of favorites
