Handmade from elk bone, this folder is 5" long, with two planes forming a ridge on the top side. It is just about 1" at its widest point. This folder is a perfect, sturdy workhorse, it would be well suited for working on a variety of materials, sizes and tasks. It comes to a longer, finer point on one end, and has a more rounded end on the other. This folder swoops very slightly at both ends, it is not completely flat. The overall tone of the bone is creamy white, with a dark cream patch on the back.
