RULES: No reverse image-searching. Text googling is fine, but not on meta-data for the picture-- i.e., you can google: "small wooden thing with metal grommet on end" but not a google that involves a scan of the image. Guess as often as you like. If you want, you can ask a question if one hasn't been asked since the last question was answered (in other words- wait until a question is answered before asking another question). The winner gets to pick the next image- or can choose someone to go next. If the image is guessed and 24 hours go by without a new image being posted up, then anyone is eligible to post up the next image. If you need a image host- I use this: https://postimages.org/

Hey, y'all-- guess what this is:

The wooden/metal thing- not the penny.

Piece of an old sewing machine?

Staple remover?

First retractable pen?

Antique leather stitching tool. (Credit to Yancey if it turns out to be correct.)

Wrong. For what it's worth- Lucy was the closest.

Any actual questions and not guesses?

Is it a tool used to make something?

Is it for a person with a disability?

It is a tool used to make something. And even though I shouldn't be answering poorpete's question per the rules, I will: It is not specifically designed for use by a disabled person.

Can it be used.as a clamp?

It is not used as any kind of clamp.

Hint: the modern version of this can be bought at crafting stores.

It looks too big to be one, but my guess is Seam Ripper.

Crochet needles?

No to both. But poorpete is so close. I used to buy modern kits that used the modern version of this tool in it.

Next big hint:

An old loom?

Last guess and I'll let others try:

Sewing Needle?
