cant hook

In hiring Lincoln, Kirkpatrick had promised to buy him a cant-hook to move heavy logs.

Not an axe, peavey or cant-hook was touched; not a team was hitched up.

A peavey is like a cant-hook except that it is pointed at the end.

Thayer moved forward belligerently, one hand reaching toward a cant hook near by.

Ba'tiste reached for the cant hook, and balancing it lightly in one hand, sought a resting place on the edge of the flume.
