They were not used to write on paper but on a slate blackboard or slate tablet. Just look it up on the internet. Saw a lot of pics. posted here but no matches.
Hi Brian...I hope you didn't take offense to my earlier post. Just wanted to let you(and others) know there are other possibilities to what this item may be. I'm posting a couple of pics of slate pencils....Looks like the groove at the top would sometimes be used to attach a string. Also, here's a discussion about a similar item posted on treasurenet a while back. Hope this helps.
