A butchering stick. The medium brown wooden stick is carved from a single piece of wood. It has an elongated, narrow, rounded shaft that tapers to blunt, carved points. At one end of the stick is an embedded flat head nail. A white paper sticker with black handwritten text adhered near the center of the stick reads [BUTCHERING STICK]. A small white accretion is also near the center of the stick.
