Ring punch. Tapered cylindrical solid steel. Near the punch face the steel is cut out like a screw, with two completed rotations. There is no pattern on the punch face. The tapered shaft gets larger toward the base where it grows exponentially to create a flat hammering surface. This surface is off-center.
