DAFW705 A drastically worked-down burgundy and green Franciscan Undocumented, but Franciscan 40.00
  chert Wahmuza Knife blade. It's sturdy and thoroughly chert is a California specific  
  flaked on both faces although without any spectacular lithic, so I'd place this one as  
  flaking pattern. Just a well-used work-horse of a blade, coming from NE California  
  which, judging from the width of the base, must have been    
  HUGE in it's prime, and having more than one color in a    
  single artifact made from Franciscan chert is a bit unusual
