   This dagger was very skillfully made by using pressure

flaking. The blade doesn't seem to show any signs of

previous grinding prior to the very uniformly done diagonal

pressure flake removals, but grinding may have been used

during the manufacturing process of making this dagger.

The handle is nicely flared on the end and it has very well

done "stitching" or zigzag flaking on both of the edges.

This dagger measures 7 15/16 inches (19.9cm) long.
