Well Ray, yours is much much longer ...

The "D" word is for *drum roll* ~~~ Drill.

Great discussion/topic on tip wear and whether it actually demonstrated use wear which made it a --> DRILL <-- ...or... a ridiculously resharpened knife to the extremity that in reality couldn't function as a --> knife <-- either. *sNaP!*

Other possibilities... Hair pin, piercing, and keep your loincloth barn door shut...

I couldn't agree more with your statements here. These would snap in a heartbeat using it as a knife! snap crackle pop

She's a g10 beauty, Ray! Hope you get some 2012 killers

Mud yours is a fine example! Thanks for adding that. I too, remember the Great Debate. It was a good one. Thanks Jason, I doubt if I can top that one but I gotta try. Ray

That is one super drill ... what a spike!
Amazing that it could survive all it's been through intact. Sweet find!
Congrats, David
