RAMEY KNIVES This picture shows a large number of Ramey knives that were brought together from several different private collections. Ramey knives are fairly rare, especially if you compare their numbers to Mississippian agricultural tools like spades or notched hoes. The knives in this group are made of Mill Creek, Kaolin and Burlington cherts. The colorful red and orange knives are the Kaolin specimens. The brown examples are Mill Creek. The
longest knife in this group measures 9 1/2 inches |
