    Real or recently made arrowhead?

    Found this arrowhead while I was going through some things at my dad’s house. He does not remember where it came from. Looks to clean/new to be a real artifact. Thought I would get opinions on it from here. Either way it’s cool looking and very sharp.

      Native Tribes were very well adept at making hunting points. I would think it's very much authentic.

          It is pretty sweet! Only thing handy for scale.

            It's the real deal. Looks like a broken tool/pre-form.

              No reason to doubt it is an authentic artifact. I wish we could see the missing base.

                  If you shine a blue/black light on it while you wear yellow lens glasses, Orange color indicates old.

                    I do not know much about these things, But I will put a big bet that point is made of Edwards flint. Native to the Hill Country. Common to the The Edwards Plateau.
                    I have found similar points on my land in Harper. The only reason I am saying so.
                    I would trust GarGuys read on this.

                        I would say it is authentic, not sure if it's a point or a knife.

                          I'm leaning towards old

                            Does he remember where he got the lighter by any chance?
