I can’t tell if the blade has a twist, awhile back one with twisted blade was called Meserve . Now , in Tx, the type is simply Dalton. Made about 7000 years ago. Appears to be made of Buckskin Edwards plateau flint. It’s nice!Lubbock County Tx

The latest book is already outdated. I talked to Sue ( God rest her sweet soul) about the deletions and additions to the last book. I was upset bc the Meserve & Hell Gap had been eliminated. I like the idea of Meserve style Dalton myself. That style is all I’ve ever found ! I don’t know if anyone will ever provide a new book, I hate the idea of that thought. Anyway, I like the next to the last book the best ( I guess bc Sue signed it personally with a note) but the book only really includes the most common of finds( Digs & Surface) lots of known types left out.

Also, I failed to mention and it’s very appropriate : I’d hand Sue a paleo point , she’d look at both sides, feel of the grinding, and then close her hand and hold the point to her heart ! The passion, it struck me ! She loved artifacts !

Thanks for the story about Mrs Turner, I do something similar when I find an artifact, I used to be able to chat with Dr Hester when I was on facebook years ago, we we're both on a fb group called Texas chert
