Wooden shoemaker's tool. The tool is a single piece of turned wood creating a wider handle than the shaft of the tool. The handle is tapered, getting wider as it nears the shaft, rounding itself off to meet the shaft. The tools shaft has a consistent diameter with the tip of the shaft cut out in a v-shape. The base of the handle is carved out in a concave line.
