I'm curious on this one. I found one of these in my wife's bedside table.

Tree climbing step

Winner.

That was easy amigo

Edit: I found a better pic

Oh Cajun Sensation is gonna love this one.

Can't believe tiga hasn't chimed in yet either.


I'm going with "handles" for what I do not know.

i cannot tell what is ridged part is, but if yarn, it looks like some sort of hand held spool for weaving or spinning.

To clarify, both pieces work together.

A more modern one-piece version has no string

well, the additional pic blows my thought out of the water.
