This one reminds me of the
silver-back gorillas, |
Recovered in |

|
the color matches perfectly. A
semi-translucent, |
SE Oregon |
|
|
opalescent AND iridescent obsidian Archaic
|
|
|
|
Atlatl Valley triangular knife blade which changes
|
|
|
|
color from black to silver when it is turned at
|
|
|
|
different angles to a light source. It appears to be
|
|
|
|
a hastily made blade, and was probably intended
|
|
|
|
as a preform for an arrowhead but was used as a
|
|
|
|
knife blade in the interim. It has a diagonal "slice"
|
|
|
|
to 1 edge running from the tip for 3/8" along the
|
|
|
|
cutting edge. A quite rare hoststone material, I've
|
|
|
|
only seen a few other artifacts made from the
|
|
|
|
silver-to-black iridescent obsidian.

This one comes with 2 COA's
which don't exactly |
Recovered in |
200.00 |
| |
agree with each other. The
Gardiner Antiquities |
San Juan Co., Utah |
|
|
COA (whom I purchased this one from many years
|
|
|
|
ago) describes it as being: A beautiful red Jasper
|
|
|
|
Basketmaker knife blade showing good percussion
|
|
|
|
flaking with nice pressure flaking to the cutting
edges. |
|
|
|
It has a slight stack to the center of the surface of
|
|
|
|
side B. Still a very attractive piece dating back to
|
|
|
|
between 1400 and 1900 years old. (Basketmaker
|
|
|
|
II-III) The Stermer COA describes it as being an
|
|
|
|
Archaic Round-base knife dating between 2,000 to |
|
|
|
7,000 years old. I tend to rely on the first COA
|
|
|
|
more, since this is who I purchased this item from,
|
|
|
|
and in all fairness to Ben, I don't believe that I
|
|
|
|
provided him with this information, as I wanted to
|
|
|
|
get his un-jaded opinion, which was probably my
|
Gardiner

|

|
mistake; but at least we know it's for real ! |
