To all whom it may concern:

Be it know that I, Momrz- MAYER, a citizen of the United States, and resident of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga, in the State of New York, have -invented new and useful Improvements Boring; Tools, of taken in connection with the accompanying drawings, is a full, clear, and exact description.

' The object-of this invention is to provide a strong, eiiicient and inexpensive tool for quick ypiercing' and boring a smooth circular aperture in leather or other penetrable object. v

lo that end-theinvention consists in the novel construction of the piercing and boring blade of the tool hereinafter described and shown in the accompanying drawings, in

which v Figures 1 and 2 are plan views of oppositeversesections res ectivel onIthelines-X- X- and -Y. in 1* 'g. back edge view of the blade.

' o-represents the blade which is formed with a tan .-bby which it isconne'cted to a suitable dle, referably of the form of a pocket-knife han 10' to which the blade is 1 and, Fig. 5 is V pivoted by a rivet passing through the handie and through a perforation cin the tang in the usual and Well known manner. Said blade is formed with its edgesconverging throughout the length of the main por- .tion of the blade and terminating in a sharp piercing point dat one end thereof as shown in Figs. 1 and 2 of the drawings. One side of said blade is formed with a flat face a -Which is in a uniform plane through out the entire length and Width of the blade as shown in Figs. 2 and 3 of the drawings, and is provided with thegroove e. for,

insertion of the thumb-nail in opening the blade from its handle. The oppositeside'of the blade is formed with, flat face f in cutting edge as shown at q.

- scribed shape of. .t

blade longitudinally so as to prevent its At one' side bendin during its operation. efthe lace f the blade is beveled to a Atthe opposite side of the face -fthe blade is hey-i eled only partway to leave a thick edge on the blade and obviate unduly'weakening the blade.

'Inusing the said tool, the operator forces the point d into theleath'er or other penetrable object,"hnd then by turning the tool thus entered and simultaneously press-g ing the tool into the pierced object a round' smooth-edged aperture is formed therein by the cuttin -edge g of the blade a It will e readil 1 observed thatthe de-3 boring tool is easily formed-from a blankcut from a plain flat steel plate and can be manufactured onpeditiously, in a very simgge and inexpensive manner, by means of a oppress provided with suitable dies.

What I claim as my invention. is1
