great burnishing tool

I picked up a great burnishing tool at a local craft store. It is tipicly used for a tin punching. It has a aliminum handel abut 4" long and has white nylon tips -- one rounded and one sharp. I like it because I can rake it pretty hard against the thread with no snags, even with metalics. Its the best i've used. Cost about $1.

I bought it out of a bucket-full they had at the craft store. There's no brand name on it. I'm in Mexico but I doubt it is a Mexican product-- tin punching not being a native craft. I would suggest going to a local craft store and asking to see tin punching tools.

Otherwise I would be happy to send some to a sponsor in exchange for a merch. credit!
