What have I got here?

I have about a two inch preform with heavy grinding along the bottom. A small point, and guitar-pick shaped object with heavy grinding also. Opinions on these please.

Massac is right,,,Even though the big one looks like a Preform,,,that is just the first stage and it would have been used like that. Until it was needed to go to the next stage of it's life...//c

They look like reduction flakes,,That could have been used as well.
Use ware and Grinding appear very much alike to the naked eye////c
