Beautiful blade. Classic river patina. That particular color patina is classic Flint River-Muckalee and Kinchafoonee Creek.

Nic is that blade a spear point or a knife? Can you date it too? Thx.

At that size I`d consider it a knife blade, but if it was hafted in a socketed foreshaft it could have been both knife and atlatl spear point. I`d hazard a guess it`s 6,000 years old.

Experiments with killing game with Stone Age weapons is an ongoing experiment, and there are findings and proof that smaller Clovis points penetrated and went in deeper to do more extensive damage and cutting than the larger ones do.
