A stemmed lanceolate, the Kramer point tends to have a straight to slightly convex base. The stems are long, usually over one third the length of the point. The stem sides are straight, contracting, or are occasionally excurvate in shape. The shoulders are prominent, often sloping from the stem in a wide arc, leaving a distinctive barb-like corner at the beginning of the blade. Flaking is not well executed, often leaving primary surfaces on one or both sides.
Percussion flaking is used to shape the point from a leaf-shaped preform.
The stem is produced by percussion flaking before pressure flaking shapes the final blade edges, tip, and hafting elements. Grinding is frequently used on the stem. Often the base is left unrefined, or thicker than the blade. This finishing technique is like the classic Lamoka point base. In South-western Ontario these points have been made from Kettle Point, Onondaga, and Selkirk cherts.
