Please help identify this fossil? Bone?

[Maintr88]

I found a small collection of very old bones and some fossils while clearing an estate in Seattle, Wa.
Please help me identify what this bone is from.

I will post some of the other items I found in another post here.

I would like to find out how old it may be and what type of animal or dinosaur it is from and any other information that you feel is helpful.

Thank you in advance for your help.

I think it is antler or tusk not bone. Maybe walrus tusk.

Welcome to tnet! Super nice find.
I have to agree that it looks like antler material. But I believe what you have is a Native American chisel like tool. I found one quite similar to yours. You can see the cut marks in the third photo that were made in the process of shaping the working edge. You may want to post that in the North American Indian forum?

I agree with the cut marks rules out Dino’s I’d guess a lower limb bone from a buffalo. Looks a bit beefy to be a deer

I think what you have is a flesher for working hides. Here's one from the net. Gary

since you found it in Seattle I would say beyond a doubt it is an elk antler wedge used for splitting cedar into planks. It is a very common NW coast tool, unmistakable.
