tater chip.  ;D

there are alot of points out there that people just assign names to.If there are several points of the same type found in an area,then they might be named from the area they where found in. There are so many variances from point to point that have different names..Sometimes I can't see the difference. Not sure about that point but I would call it a simple corner notched points.

looks well made.

That is definately, without a doubt a genuine, certified, HUSTON point from the late caveman period.. and should be sent directly to me for proper use on a large bull elk or bear as soon as possible.. ;D ;) Very cool point.... Hawk
