   Hey Chad G. 
Here is a Cahokia point, and a soon to be Dovetail point (not finished yet) I made of fiber optic glass

This point comes from Baker NV. The local arrowhead expert in Ely NV said it predated the Native American local tribes.  He wanted it really bad. I was 12 and it was the first one I found. He got pissy with me and that wasn’t a good thing to do. Dad said “take it and get in the truck” I don’t know to this day what happened in there but my Dad came out with another arrowhead and said “now you have 2” 🔥

Fire1981,

That’s super cool. That’s point is made of obsidian. It’s considered “Far West” section. California, Nevada, small part of Utah, small part of Idaho,Oregon and Washington. The pics I’ve sent are what this point may have started out looking like. Primitive man would reworked and resharpen point and blades until they were used up.
