Description

Last hook with bone handle. The handle has circular, flat ends, which remains consistent along the handle base. The top of the handle widens toward the center where there is a circular piece of metal to hold the hook in place. The rectangular tang comes out of the bottom of the handle and has a thread tied around it. The sides of the tool are rounded from there and continues straight until it turns at a 90 degree angle to create the 1 3/16" long hook.
