Description

Wooden shoulder stick with edge iron on one end. The iron edge is made up of two-steps on either side leaving the shared center step protruding out 11/16". The steps are not uniform on both sides. One starts at 7/16" and the other 5/16". The end of the shoulder stick tapers toward the center before increasing in size again, with one side increasing exponentially creating a foot-like appearance. The bottom of the "foot" is slightly curved and rounded off where it meets the concave side of the stick.
