 I was at my daughter's Christmas Day. As I walked past the Horse shoe throwing pit I noticed a small chip.As I looked around more closely I found this big(4 1/2") Kirk Serrated blade sticking out of the ground. It has a fluted impact break on the nose and the base broke at the shaft. It has some amazing, uniform serrations. It is made from a high grade Tampa Bay Bottom chert. I couldn't believe with all the horse shoe pitching that has gone on, that it hasn't been hit , or , anybody else saw it. In one piece it would be worth a real nice hunting trip somewhere, it is still worth a new bow. :)

I've seen a video on youtube that shows that you can use a stone pressure flaker to make those tiny serrations.  I think it was one of BOHUNTER's videos.

Nice point. ;D

 Yep, Claude showed Bowhunter about the stone. It was used alot for abrading also between the serrations.
