  • Possibly a blade? Any thoughts?

    I’ve been in quite a dry spell lately, so while I’m waiting on the fields to get harvested I’ve been trying out some different things. Today I found a good washout that comes off a large field down into the Delaware River. I was just stirring up the sand and gravel just downriver from the washout and within 5 minutes I found this. Unfortunately 10 minutes later the Mrs. called and my hunt was over! At least for today that is! It’s made of Argillite so it’s pretty worn, I don’t know maybe since it’s been so long since I’ve found something it’s just a natural rock any thoughts would be appreciated

    Pretty creek worn, but it looks like a blade to me!

        Looks worked but it has been in the water a long time I doubt it came from the washout. I’m in a dry spell to same reason as you. Cotton is ready and just sitting there waiting just like me

          Some of the farmers have started picking soybeans so as dry as it’s been it’s only a matter of time now. It’s been driving me nuts waiting for the open fields! One of my best field’s should be picked and disked in the next two weeks but there going to plant winter wheat in it so I will only have a couple weeks to hunt it before the wheat comes up and I have to stay off!

          I actually got some rain yesterday and they say more this week I’m hoping he picked it today weather was perfect. Maybe it will be worth the wait and you will find some good ones

          For what it’s worth, I’d thot “Knife” as soon as I picked it up!

            Honestly it was the first thing that came to my mind! But like yourself I am also in the learning process and thanks to the people of this site, their kindness and wealth of knowledge i am able to actually identify some of the things I come across now. But I still have to ask just to make sure lol
