post your awl type tools here please, maybe we can get a good thread going like thirty7 did with the knives
here are a few frames showing the various types of Arikara/Mandan bone awls
the awls with the round pulley on the end were made from deer or elk leg bones
one bone would make 2 awls which started out about 6 inches long and were sharpened over and over until they became so short that they were used up
i will post some images of these at the various stages of construction soon
