- Description
- A hide scraper made from the leg bone of a deer or elk, from just below the knee, and carved into a squared shape. The scraper is hollowed and one half of its length is cut away leaving a flattened sharpened serrated end. The animal’s hide is still on the knee joint at the top and there is a hanging thong threaded through a drilled hole at the knee. The bone is tightly wrapped with strips of rawhide (or sinew?) one third of its length to hold the two pieces together where the bone was split.
