The last two are side scrapers with graver spurs.
 

I forgot about those types of Tools. Here are some Endscrapers and Sidescrapers with Engraver Spurs on them. All personal finds.

Nice ones. I like those multi-tools. Clean up the bone... score and snap it ..and make your new bone tool.

Wow that's very nice- thanks for showing.
 

A few more - Mandan

Very interesting thread and nice to see the variety of examples.

I don't know if these drills are "micro" but they're the smallest I've found.

The chert scrapers with gravers are some I picked up this past summer.

I also thought I'd include the smallest bone awl (mini-awl) I've found - upper left in the drill photo.

That last one looks a lot like reapers he and his dad found.

Got some more now the black one is called a borer next to the crystal which also is a borer. A borer is different than a graver or perferator. The tips are more round instead of sharp.

Yeah this is a great thread. I am sure there are others that can show some of theirs.
 

Here you go Natchitoches,. These are my smallest "micro"-drills , from so. cal . As small as these lithic drills are ,I don't believe[?] they could drill such a hole as in the shell bead in the pic ? Maybe ,. such "micro'-holes were drilled with a "cane- type" bit made of a quill, fish bone/spine or ?? Anyway my smallest drills ,..and hole........ Blindpig
