Two linked pieces of brown softwood. The major component is fitted into the secondary component. Each piece has a bend in the opposite direction which allows them to fit together in a flat or an open arrangement. A serrated-edged iron blade is fitted into an extension from the major component. When fitted together, the two pieces form a seat in the shape of an "x" (in profile), with the blade extending in the front. The edges are clean or beveled and suggest western-type tools, such as a saw and plane. Some pencil marks as guides for cuts are apparent.

Blade has rough rectilinear patterns incised on each side (different) in mirror image around the central ridge. One side is typically parallel and perpendicular to the major axis of the blade; the other side is in diagonals to that axis. Overall dark brown; possibly a resin, oil, or other stain has been used. Probably chonta palm wood. Different geometric design on each side.
