I'm not sure what this thing is called, but it's my most-often, most-used tool. It's really a simple tool. One end has a semi-sharp point, the other a flat semi-sharp surface. I'm not even sure where or when I got it. I think it may have been part of an old wood-sculpting kit.
The tool pokes, gouges, smooths, retrieves, indents, scrapes, punctures, steadies, and... oh, yeah... sculpts.
You can tell how much I use it by how caked it is with debris. I seem to recall the handle was once a very bright yellow.
I have one almost identical, and it is my fav also. I actually wore out/broke my first and found a better knurled metal handle one at a flea market in an auto tool booth. It was invaluable in scoring the inside of my Uncle Earl head when prepping for internals.
