    Ok, I do not have a clue what this is! I just thought I would throw it out there and see what comes back. Help me out here.
    It was in a box with the Worthington brass plate I listed the other day.

      stonesfan1, thank you very much. I guess the wood handle does not really go with the brass part.
    4. stonesfan1 stonesfan1, 13 years ago
      yes it does

      Wood part looks to have been added to make into a walking stick at one time, I see people use these for that a lot.
