  • Ancient of days and voted Mr. October.

    Kin to little bit,

    And wisest of the bunch
    To which I make no claim
    Truth be known, I’m sometimes out to lunch

    Simpson folks are older, true
    But none are any wiser
    And few will have a mustache too

    So when you go a hunting, I hope that you’ll find
    Another wise old fella
    when looking for my kind

    The end is come I fear, I know your broken hearted
    Get off that couch, there’s more out there
    A question of when ‘n where....Lol.

    That must be daddy Red? Little Red's old man? Besides the color the beveling gives it away.

    I'd love to see one of those in the unsharpened version. Really cool how they have that flat/resharpened rhomboid shape. (Just a couple of types from the earliest days of the Archaic in the South & Midwest have that trait, and then a couple of later points out on the Plains. It's pretty unique trait.)

      Yeah, it’s a very different trait alright, most folks don’t spot that, and yes I imagine it was a honker, and the ole boy could run some long thin flakes to end up with the flattened cross section like that.

      So you just casually put up a point like that? One of your best so far in my opinion. I'd say you are holding out on us but I get the feeling you have many more knockout points to show. Keep them coming.

        I would dearly love to see it, I’m very interested in how points from other areas might or might not relate to each other.

            I don't believe I've ever seen a point like that one. You got me Hal. Another gem. I should start to show some of mine. Kim

              You got me by surprise with that one, it’s a side splitter, I laughed for a full minute.....I don’t believe those bushes can take Them harsh Carolina winters, however, Antmike has one that’s fixin to bloom.

            Ive tried to describe my feeling for this piece a couple different times. it gets easy to use the same adjectives and superlatives all the time..
