My best find ever

[Rockit Man]

It is a papered point found at the boyscout Nacho dig on My last dig on the screen with Nacho... time frame documented and is still in My A frame. sometimes life throws you curves. can I get a few opinions? I was hoping it was an andiice preform but not what it was papered as.

the point is 4 and 3/8ths inches long by 2" wide

Archaic Blade? Looks like a big wide Darl blade also?!!! It's a good one Whatever it is!

[Scotto]

Big Friday knife? Outstanding!!!

[Bobby]

It is a great find and it is nice to say the least but not made nice enough to be an Andice preform. If Dughwain papered it, he probably went with the Archaic Blade title.

You know Rockit this might be what you call your Best Find Ever but I recall a lot of points in your collection I would have put befor this one!

Thanks for your responses. I knew I had something very special when found. It just had too many features about it to be a run of the mill friday blade or archaic blade but was not sure what to call it so I sent it to Dwain Rogers for his expert opinion. I was shocked and pleased when I got it back papered as a Marcos Knife. My question now is the rarity of it. I cant recall ever seeing one like it before but I know there have to be more out there.

I would guess that would be the case with the marcos points and my wife found a great example of a sabinal marcos that day. it has a reworked tip from an impact fracture and sadly an ear ding but found closely together.
