ok I posted this in todays finds an everyone said I should post it here so hereit goes .

I was down along the Border today researchin a lead on a old trail into a campsite , I was out walking along a old wash at the foot of a hill an saw this sticking out of the ground , just the tip but the color was just enough to catch my eye .This is my first arrow head I'm still stoked by it , if you lay it flat it kinda bows`on one side the way it was chipped out but the other side is almost flat like you would expect , it has a shadow going threw the upper part that at a glance looks like a crack but it isnt , an yes it is still sharp.I plan on looking a lil more next time I'm there for another 1 or 2.

PS no it wasnt that color when I found it , it was dirty with tan dirt on it , I just washed it not thinking of taking before an fater pics sorry , lol told you I was excited

Tank, this is a very nice piece. I sure wish you would take some good closeups in the daylight so we could see more of the detail. Sunlight does wonders for these points.

Great find.  thumbsup
