Small scraper or drill??

[TXPlugKutter]

Just curious of what yall thought this was. I am thinking it was once a point and they ended up making a thumb scraper out of it but thats just my opinion. It could have been a small drill as well.

Sorry about the blurry pic. My scanner doesn't take good pics of 3d objects.

Thanks

The stone has good color, is the tip smooth like it might have been worn off, or can you see where the tip was broken off ?

The tip was broke off. I added another pic of the other side. It shows the tip a little better. I also messed with the brightness/contrast to show the deep red and almost translucent vein of the flint. It is a very pretty piece.

Probably used as a little Awl or Punch in working with leather. Nice looking tool.

Agreed...an awl.
