    This is a wooden objectI purchased at a sale.
    I am not sure what it is .
    The wood looks like it may be teak it is a hard wood.
    Is it a northwest native tool?

      Where would early NW natives get teak? Maybe another object left by aliens to confuse us & give materiel to those stupid TV shows about their "proven existence".
      Getting serious (which only comes in short spells with me), the pics make the bottom look slightly curved or is it flat?

      Or are you asking about the pencil? See what I mean!

      If teak floats maybe that's how they got it. On the beach.
      On a second look it may be walnut.
      The bottom is slightly curved and radiused as well.
      It looks like a tool ,of course it's a tool .
      It reminds Me of a trowel.
      As far as aliens go ??? Alien water ski?

      Could be an aboriginal shield.
