It sure looks like a big fid with a magic arm, though my first thought had been "pestle" Belaying pins do tend to taper and employ the principle of the wedge though.
Is the cross-section round? A good fid will have a flat side or a trianglular cross-section for tightening knots, but this is far from universal. Very cool piece! |
