    I found this in a ravine. Any ideas of what it is? It is stone with a hole on one end. Some suggestions have been- antique stone plumb bob, Native American tool???

      This is a mass produced sharpening stone and should have a wooden handle attached. I see these very often at flea markets mixed with kitchen tools.

      Thank you! Do you know when they were made?

      I can't be certain but I think around late 1940's, 1950's. These usually have a soft, fine stone.
