plinkercases Report post Posted January 1, 2019 (edited) Take it up to Aaron Martin Harness in Wallenstein. They may know and it is a great place with nice Mennonite folks who can talk leather work. Then go next road south and visit his brother Levi and Harness Hardware and he may know and grab a 5 dollar grab bag (or three!) of mixed hardware for fun. While I doubt its a leather tool it may be felting tool for some fibres like Alpaca? I'll ask my sister in law who has an Alpaca farm and product business.

I've been to both those places, and if your sister in law sells at the market, I've probably talked to her! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alpha2 Report post Posted January 1, 2019 Haven't been able to figure it out yet, but this has to be a multi-row lacing chisel, right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Squid61 Report post Posted January 15, 2019 Alpha2, can't tell the size but it looks like a vintage meat tenderizer for home kitchen use. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
