Finely crafted, planoconvex, concave base.

Slate fish knife.* Fide donor GTE: Slate fish knife. Fish knives, made of a grey slate more often than black in color, and dug up on old living places and from the sand graves. They are rather longer than wide, and worked down quite thin with a keen cutting edge. I doubt if these were set in a handle as is the case of the woman's knife of the Eskimo, but they seem to have been more on the type of the shell or metal fish knife of the coast. *Information is from the original accession ledger.

Chipped stone knives (leaf-shaped). Ledger count listed as 44 or 26? Numbers of specimens in upper left hand corner of ledger were entered by Frank Barnett who checked the material in 1939, working as a volunteer.* Two blades or scrapers (5674/54, 5674/2) returned from Grant County Public Utility District, Wanapum Dam Heritage Center on January 25, 1995. These materials were originally sent to Grant County PUD for future exchange (see Borrower's Agreement - 1966), but the exchange papers were never drawn up. Since this material was only loaned, not deaccessioned, the Grant County PUD returned it to the Burke. (L. Phillips, 1/26/95). Thirty-six bifaces counted, previous count on computer was forty-four. There are 32 chert, 1 basalt, 1 obidian and 2 unknown stone bifaces. (6/95). NOTE: At least one was loaned to Washington State Parks and determined to be lost while on loan.
