Looks like a spall to me not a scraper in my honest opinion.TN formerly CT Visit our store http://stores.arrowheads.com/store.p...m-Trading-Post

Thank you for checking it out Sir. I am more confused than ever. I just cannot wrap my head around normal weather doing this. Looks to have plenty of micro flaking and is tapered multiple times toward the edges with what appears to be flake removal

The edge on a scraper will have a lot of small flakes but they will form a uniform edge not an irregular edge like your example is demonstrating in the photos. These pictures are not the best I appologze. Above I put in a scale for size. It is in CM.
Below I put the arrow pointing to the top of the bevel on the wroking edge of the scraper. A scraper will have a beveled working edge with unifom flaking but it will also show polish at the top pf that bevel .Last edited by Hoss; 11-16-2017, 04:51 PM.TN formerly CT Visit our store http://stores.arrowheads.com/store.p...m-Trading-Post
