    Description

    This is an authentic Etley Knife, part of a cache of four blades found together in Jefferson County, Missouri.  Overall length is 5.5", material is Burlington Chert with great patination and surface mineralization. The ear, base and tip restoration was done by the amazing Scot Stoneking of Massillon, Ohio.  He has faithfully recaptured the correct form and matched the colors acquired through eons of surface exposure.  This blade is guaranteed authentic, with COA by Ben Stermer, and restoration as noted.  Before and after photos are on the Certificate.  Low starting point and no reserve.  14-day no questions asked returns.  This artifact is absolutely stunning in a frame, especially when displayed with the other 2 cache blades (which are being simultaneously listed). Will combine shipping.
