What do you have there Hal? How about a side view. Couldn't tell from the pic if it's a blade or a Clear Fork. Still a good find. A question though, what's up with the electrical tape on the finger?

AHHhh, ever the eagle eye that fingernail ripped back into the meat, tape is a blowout patch
until the EMS get there.

No side pic for now, it's nice and thin, not bragging thin. Closest to a Covington type.
Nother unwashed pic on unwashed arm

I REALLY thought I had broken through the Corner Tang barrier...This pic is just the way it was raked out, untouched...Look at that rounded edge and only one notch visible. Could see it was thin and quality made
Drumroll mystro please .., Corner Tang dance about to start



GeeX called it right, right from the start, just a dam base tang



Delicate



I guess I'll keep it !



Micrometer is a better measuring tool



Corner Tang dance CANCELLED

still want to see that one cleaned up....its a killer.

Both cleaned blades featured above are in this pic. Most older finds from this mound are that non descript bleached white.



JK Hood just made it to the front page with a real quality Blade. Didn't specify what site or if it is clean but it's got that look of unwashed bleached.
