This glass arrowhead copies the ones used by Ishi while he was living in the wilderness of Northern California. They were made from scavenged bottle and window glass and he’d hunt deer and other game with them. This point is made of thin window glass and they are often called “abo Ishi points” to designate them as the ones he used specifically for hunting when he was living his aboriginal lifestyle. These differ from the more famous side-notched Ishi points that he made once he abandoned the wilderness and came to live in modern society. Free shipping to all U.S. customers.
This finely made glass arrow point copies the type of arrowheads that Ishi, “the last wild Indian of North America”, made and tipped his arrows with when he was still living in the wilds of northern California. Ishi made arrowheads from discarded glass bottles he found at old ranch dumps, and he’d also use pieces of broken window glass for his points. This point is made of window glass, and copies those that tipped his hunting arrows. His hunting points differ from the larger, Wintu style points he made after coming out of the wilderness. Scroll through the photos and you’ll also see a photo of Steve Allely with a deer he killed using replica Ishi archery gear. Rest assured these points work. This is a great gift for yourself or someone who loves the wild west, history, or Native American culture. Free shipping to all US customers.
This beautiful Pueblo Side Notched arrowhead is made of a glittery glass known as Goldstone. It’s a man-made glass with very fine flecks of a copper colored mineral that displays an eye-catching glitter whenever the arrowhead is rotated in the light. It’s finely knapped with clean flake removals on both sides. It measures 1 1/4-inch long, and 1/2-inch wide and is right in line with the size of prehistoric Pueblo Side Notched arrowheads found on archaeological sites in the desert Southwest. This arrowhead could be kept in a display case or wire wrapped and made into a very pretty necklace pendant. Free shipping within the U.S.
This obsidian knife is a museum-quality copy of prehistoric knives that have been found in Great Basin caves, one of which was found in a rockshelter in north-central Oregon near the Umpqua River. Identical knives (from the Basketmaker culture) were also used in the Four Corners regions of the Southwestern desert approx 1000 year ago. This knife has a black obsidian blade set into a handle of desert juniper. A hole is drilled in the center of the handle and through the hole is a cord made of hand twisted poplar bark that’s been tied to create a loop. This allows your hand to slip through the loop and the knife dangles from your wrist like a bracelet. This ingenious design keeps the knife ready for use…with a quick flip of the wrist the knife is instantly in your palm where the knife is grasped for use. It also prevents the knife from being dropped and breaking the fragile blade. This is a fully functional knife that is unmatched for skinning large game like deer and elk. 7 1/4-inches total length.

This pretty Wintu point is made of light yellowish green glass from a Newman’s Own olive oil bottle. This point copies some authentic Wintu points I’ve seen that were made from scavenged glass the Indians collected from old ranch dumps. This point is sleek and elegant, with very sharp, finely serrated edges that could very easily take down a deer. It also has the delicate, upturned notches that were a common trait of the Wintu points from northern California.
This exquisite Gunther Barbed arrowhead is made of smooth grey Texas flint with long, very sharp barbs and a needle-sharp tip. It has finely serrated edges that are so sharp they feel sticky when your finger is drawn across them. It has long, delicate barbs that are the classic trait of this type of arrow point. Some people assume these points were used for fishing due to the long barbs, but in reality blood protein analysis of old original points prove that these exquisite arrow points were used for hunting big game like deer, elk, and bighorn sheep. Free shipping to US customers.
