Hello from Hazard!
We received one more guess on Item No. 1263. Levi Jenkins’ guess what that it is either a wooden spatula to spread icing on a cake or it may be used to work butter after it is made.
Dean A. Smith, of Clyde, Ohio, submitted Item No. 1263, writing it is a flax knife for harvesting flax grain. He got it from his Grandmother Erma Mercer.

We’ve got a real mystery on our hands with Item No. 1264. It was submitted by “Clutter Boss” in October with no additional information.
