    Zaleski is a very good match. And this would be the first Heavy Duty in my collection and for a free point not bad. And for the Heavy Duty type I believe it would be the Serrated type. That type fits very well  as far as length, blade shape and base configuration. A big thanks for everyone's help.

      There is an Ohio type called a Heavy Duty, which is part of the Kirk Cluster.  They have that degree of thickness and that base, but they are usually resharpened differently (long -and- narrow, loosing width with each resharpening but maximizing the length.)
      My guess would be something related to a Kirk, it might very well have been a 4 or 5 inch piece that was resharpened down into what you have now which could explain the thickness.  But the material from Nebraska on the other point does look similar...
      I am not familiar with Neb. nor Ohio flints or types, But tend to the Heavy Duty theory because of its thickness,
      Thanks for the fine pics

        At first glance hearing possibly Ohio, my first thought was heavy duty. Nice point, no matter what ya want to type it!
