This pair of drills range from just under 3″ to 2-1/2″ in size. The Hornstone one was found in Floyd County Indiana and is not broken but contains the original rind of the flint.
This is a Hornstone pencil drill. It’s hard to tell the age of drills without it having a base from a repurposed arrowhead. Drills were used throughout prehistory. This one is very well made and would probably fall into the Archaic time period. It shows some smoothing from use at one end.
This is a great little perforator / awl / drill It has a fine needle tip and a flared base for an easy grip. These are hard to date as they were used throughout Native American history.
This drill was purchased at a relic show as part of a collection. It along with all of the other points in the group appear to be both old and authentic. It was well made of high quality material with nice patina.
