This Piton most likely dates to the  late 1930’s.  We believe it was hand forged from malleable iron featuring a double eye at the head and a full shank.  I wonder what routes this piton has help send…absolutely wonderful patina.  As with all of our vintage climbing equipment we recommend decorative
purposes only.  If you’re a climber you already know, if you’re not
ask.
