Jew's harp

Made from 1 mm flat spring steel. One end is semi-circular. The steel widens in the centre and then tapers towards the other end. The 1.8 cm long, 90° angled end is round and shaped into a flat, outwardly curved ring at the tip. A 4.5 cm long, upright square steel bar is forged into the flat, slightly wider centre section on the right and left. The square steels, which run parallel and free at a small distance from the flat spring steel, are forged to a point towards the angled tip.
