The pressure chipping is about as fine of flaking as anyone could ask--some places, particularly near the tip it's transverse knapping--thin, angled flaking. The piece was part of a Gibson County, Indiana, collection, something I framed and stored fifteen (or more) years back...amazing what you forget is in a back corner of your basement when you go looking for something else. The flint is a very high grade of our Hoosier Harrison County Hornstone,2&3/8" by 1&7/16", with thickness maxed out at 3/8". The pictures should show, the blade really, really thins as it nears the tip: the top third of the blade is no more than 1/4" thickness. the basal edge has a small degree of grinding--NOT heavy, but it is definitely dulled. Both barb ends show the effects of all the sharpening (as the piece was used and dulled)--the barbs became rounded, they lost their length. There is very slight wear (dulling) on the tip--it dates to the Early Archaic, not a new chip, definitely. Every detail is lifetime guaranteed authentic.
