I'd take that 1 step further and check with a library or college professor on those. Be very interesting to know the exact use of those.

HMMM.......how bout that.

Itwould be neat to see if someone with knowledge of stone tools could chime in and say what they really are.

Bloodcrick, (He is our resident rock expert) seems to think somebody has just roughed them to shape and stashed them. Then when he had more time he would go back and finish them. That's why some look pretty rough around the edges so to speak.

Nice collection. Depending on the factors, a few of those could be worth thousands. You really should get them checked by a pro.
I cant really tell you too much, because I have no Idea of your location, tribe, and most importantly, size of those pieces. care to take a pic with a tape measure next to one for reference?

Very cool! I'm no expert, but they look like tools/knives that they skinnedcut up the animals (deer,buffalo,etc.) with. Great finds.

those are spear heads and hand tool type heads. Arrow heads are pretty small, they really wern't much bigger than the arrow diameter. I am no expert but saw that on a show. But reguardless they are cool.

i have a ton of these from tenn.
we go out in plwed fields.
the arrow heads will be alot smaller, and usually pretty short. spear heads are a bit onger but still narrow. those look like rough naps or knives to me.
