Vintage Wooden Handle Hog Butchering Hook - Man Cave

Here's an item for your man cave that you can hang your hat on!!!!! This old tool was used in the hog butchering process to move the carcass. Not to be confused with a gambrel stick which was used to hang the carcass for gutting with hooks that were inserted in the hind leg tendons. Tool is just as I found it in the wild... It's not that I am too lazy to clean it up for sale but I thought a winning bidder would appreciate some original patina, rust and all. Handle is round on both ends and fat in the middle. It appears to have been fashioned out of a piece of oak wood with a drawing knife. It measures 21" long end to end. One end is 1 3/4" in diameter while the other is only 1" in diameter. The middle is 2 1/4" thick at the shaft. Hook (shaft) measures 12 1/2" from the eye at the top of the handle to the bottom of the hook. Hook is 2 1/2" from the point to the shaft. Shaft is solid steel and is about 5/8" in diameter. There are two 1/4" holes about 4" from each end that have been drilled through and through the wood. I found no maker's mark or other identifying information. This item was probably made by a blacksmith. Tool weighs 2 pounds 8 ounces and will ship at about 4 pounds 6 ounces due to its ungainly shape. Powered by eBay Turbo Lister The free listing tool.
