It's nothing special, just a scratch awl.
It's special to me because it was my grandfather's. He was a master carpenter, building houses for decades. He showed me how to use it and take care of it.
It was a staple of his toolbox and it shows many years of use.
So, come on folks, what's your favorite tool and why?
P.S. Can someone tell me how to make my photo files smaller so they will upload?
Thanks
