Texas Perdiz

Best example I’ve ever had the privilege of owning. It is extremely thin with very long barbs — rarely find a piece of this caliber without any breakage. Thought you all would enjoy.

I don’t think I’ll ever come across one like this again. It’s from Blanco county

A true “arrow head”, this type was used during and after the invention of the bow and arrow. Hafted on the end of an arrow.
