2 mostly bone frames

[larson1951]

here are a few frames of some bone stuff for your perusal and comments
things such as, awls quill flatteners, flaking tools, pottery spatulas, large and small beads, bracelet parts
also anybody with bone stuff to post please put it here if you wish

I am hoping to start a few good informative threads

note that at the bottom of the 2nd image in the middle is a copper knife blade
I have a bone handle that this fits
I will post some images of it when it is placed in a bone knife handle along with a few more handles

Man the ware on some of those realy show the love they had for the tool.Kinda makes me wonder if they tossed it or lost it.

Great thread. I have only a few bone awls. They do not last well in my climate and most bone found is crushed and boiled for the marrow...
Nice looking displays.
