[artifactman660]

nice find! havent heard from you in a long time. just found this video congrats on your axe. 

[otepgod]

@artifactman660 Yeah things have been busy around the house. Kid 1 is 14 months and Kid 2 is on the way. So between the two and work its been nuts. I'll have some vids up relatively soon though. Just need to find the time.

[grengd]

Feel a bit sorry for the guy who lost it thousands of years ago. Bet he was pissed off that day.

[MadEclectic]

Awesome find, Otep. Glad the Injun gods are still smiling down on you :)

[DrSpauldingthe3rd]

I see you have buired another one. If you must bury artifacts to find a few months later. Atleast dont bury the ones that used to be in my collection.

[scrappulous1]

[kansasknapper71]

@JBernard79...and it's obvious you can't appreciate the nature of his find, so why waste your time watching vids like this?....nice find otepgod, I found my first complete hardstone in March, (a celt) and my reaction was very similar. Congrats!!

[JBernard79]

I'm not trying to be mean but it's obvious a guy like this doesn't get laid much if at all.

[otepgod]

@JBernard79 lol says the man who uploaded a video of himself playing World of Warcraft or some similar type game... Thanks for the view. My wife and kid are doing fine :P

[tnpoint]

[richardsrockhouse]

what a wonderfull find love to hear that excitement, well deserverd, congrats , and keep goin.

[auisbest]

awesome artifact! Congrats! ;0)

[jaredwv1]

WOW! what a find, cant get any better than that.

[Mumbamumba]

That looks pretty nice! Could you please give some information about the axe?

[otepgod]

@Mumbamumba 4/4 groove. Axe itself has a bit of a twist to it. It also is about 65% polished. Sharp bit with polish extending up about an inch. A few books suggest that the 4/4 axe is the oldest of the axe types. However, I am one that believes Native Americans would have made 4/4 throughout based on other artifacts IE- Maul's, sinkers, clubs...

[greatbasinman]

What a just completely outrageous way to start the season for you!!!! CONGRATS!!! Your reaction was almost as good as axe itself, uh not.. Hopefully the axe is the start of a great season of looking for you!!

[otepgod]

@greatbasinman yeah, watching it now I am a bit over the top :p Its the king of tools though. Kinda surpassed my expectations for this year already. Good luck on your next hunt.

@wadoman699 Thanks :O

[Metalfinder6]

How do you know where to look? Two axes in one field? That is amazing!

[otepgod]

@Metalfinder6

I did hours and hours of research. Ask Richard from Richards Rockhouse for pointers. He's the man to go to.

[Metalfinder6]

@otepgod Will do
