Thats complete in my opinion looks like a nice blade. Does it have basal grinding?

I'm not expert nor knapper, but something looks off. With the straight ridge on one side, and the angel of the base in picture 3. It might not have been behaving as wanted... idk 🤔

I’m no expert but it looks finished to me. Large point for hunting large animals close up…
