What is it??

[john845]

. I found this today in the woods near some cellar holes. I found a Skelton key and harmonica reed right by this item. It looks like a pen cap too me. The open end is threaded and there is a narrow slit in it. Anyone know what it is or from?

It looks a little heavy duty to be a pen cap.

What kind of metal? May we see the open end?

Possibly from a vintage antenna of some kind?

[john845]

it looks like its made of brass the open end is threaded and tapered a little bit where the threads are

i been finding a lot of skeleton keys lately. i think i got four in the last week a few of them are broken though. I dont mind finding them even if its broken it beats finding a harmonica reed or something

looks like a handle from a scythe. Like about a 5 ft length of wood with a long blade at the bottom end and 2 handles for hanging onto. You make a sweeping motion and used for cutting hay, long grass. With a brush blade on can be used for cutting willows. I hope someone here gets my drift. LOL
