This large spade or hoe was made from an Elk leg bone and a rugged and well formed percussion flaked stone head made from a piece of Oregon chert. The blade has been set in place and secured with epoxy putty on the inside. It has been wrapped with natural elk sinew and patinaed to look aged and original. Nothing fancy, just simple and practical.
Tools were tools. They were not pretty but functional. This modern reproduction of a primitive hand tool is representative of artifacts found in the Columbia River Valley in Oregon as well as along the Mississippi valley. These were solid and strong tools.
Length: 11 1/2 inches
