Its Easier to tell if something is "fake" than authentic with photos alone. The fake ones are made by modern knappers. They were not born knowing how to knap perfect arrowheads so a lot of they're early knappings tend to be more crude compared to theyre more recent ones showing the progress they have learned.
You are going to have to show it to somebody in Person if You want A Good Honest answer. If I was to guess from photos I would say fake.
May help to know where it came from. Nice pics and Thanks for Sharing
The few fakes I have seen had really sharp tips & this one doesn't.
Good observation Blunderbuss2, There are plenty of modern knapped points with poorly made tips. I have even made some :)
