What This Type Of Haft Is Using For?

Recommended Posts

Hi,

Just met the haft named "bros type" (???) which is looking pretty strange to me. I mean the part which is going to be in the palm. Please see picture attached.

Does anybody know what that kind of handle is usually using for? Or is it just a regular shape to be hold by hand?

It is missing the leather washer on top. It is a pegging awl haft. Used for putting peg holes in shoe soles or shanks, also for attaching boot heels. It is struck with a hammer.
