Those are really nice examples choo.
These are the two best I own. These were found the same day in the same field, but on separate ends about 200 yards apart. My father and I were hunting together and he started at one and I the other. He found one and I found the other one. When we met in the middle to show each what we had found we both had that look of WTF when we showed these. lol

I also hunted with my Dad growing up. There is no better way for a father to spend time with his son.
A couple of things about these tools, they often aren't used as perforators but rather for incising soft wood. They would be used to make things like the paddles used for paddle stamped ceramics. Some people may call them "gravers. It is much easier to use a bone or a sharpened stick to perforate hides and they usually show a polished tip when used as a perforator. I'm a tools guy and have a few laying around here somewhere.

The 2 items that the post was made on could also be paddle micro drills. What ever they are they are fine and a great find.
