Tguiri Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I found this in northeastern Mexico about 5 hours south of the border. It’s a bit more than 3 inches long, rounded on one side and bladed on the other like a saber. Please help ID. Thanks!

Innocentx Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I'm not sure about the shape but the first picture seems to have fossil bits on it. Maybe better focus will show some cool stuff.

Fossildude19 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 While the shape is suggestive or a tooth or claw, I don't believe that it is. It's not a tooth, as there is no enamel or root texture present on the piece. I don't think it is a claw, as there are no articular surfaces, and no bone texture. At this point, I would have to go with a suggestively shaped rock. 2 Tim - VETERAN SHALE SPLITTER VFOTM --- APRIL - 2015 __________________________________________________ "In every walk with nature one receives far more than he seeks."
