I bought this today for ten bucks from a vendor who's always on the lookout for things for me. He bought it at a barn sale in Deerfield Ma this week. Can anyone guess what it is and it's approx age? Laughing I will say that it's original, very rare and very old. There is another one on display at a museum in Deerfield. It was a big find and a MAJOR addition to my collection!

Hey Dock, I would have to say it looks to me like some sort of Native American tomahawk piece pipe.
