#862--Ten Kentucky chert/ flint knives and preforms

The longest of these Muhlenberg County, Kentucky, finds is 3&3/8", Hornstone with some cortex on one face (eight of the ten are Hornstone). The smallest is Sonora Flint, just under 1&1/2"--the tenth blade is a Chalcedony with all sorts of color bandings--that one I'll settle for "Chalcedony' as the exact type is similar to a number of very similar raw materials--sometimes you don't know if it's an 'out-of-area' flint or the local tribes found a small chert source and utilized it...unless you happen to live in the place where the source was located. To explain that a bit more: Let's say you were a Hopewell hunter, you found a small flint source while stalking deer in a creek near where you lived--you took that knowledge back to your tribe, they returned to gather flint. Maybe the material never traveled more than a few miles from the source creek...and it never got "named" by modern collectors. That's the problem with small (or single source) flints.. So--all ten are real, shipping them will be $11 (wish there was a cheaper way to ship, but I haven't found it)--I accept checks, cash, or M.O.s, but do not use paypal-type services--Roy A.
