My collection comes from 4 total sources, the estate sale, a stone I found myself, a somewhat suspicious ebay seller, and a friend who collected one in the american west. Some of these stones are quite old, and are little more than flaked scrapers, while others are nicely formed points. + +

+ +I should probably consider adding a side profile of this stone, because it is very 3 dimensional in shape, with a large bump in the middle that fits nicely into the hand. + +
