This is the ultimate practical hunting tool. The bone handle is tied to the stone blade with woven cord. Think about this...not only did you have to hunt the deer (from which this bone likely came), but then you had to carve the stone blade and put the whole business together. It's no wonder the creator did not bother to add any niceties to the knife! He didn't even bother to shape the end of the handle. Look closely, and you can see the elbow joint from the deer!
