"Candle End" is the name for a "pointy end"!! It's carried into the #85s from my 2011 Harness Knife!! Bill added it to the pattern as a favor to me, but he doesn't particularly like it!! It's a little harder to finish than a standard Teardrop end!!
It looks to me (and I could definitely be wrong) that the unfinished ones are the same, but the finished one on the cover page looks different like they did a change in the finishing process.View attachment 1514798 View attachment 1514800
@Cutfinger as you noticed it will be a spear with a long pull that is unusual for a Tidioute model and the cap lifter. Guess the 2011 cap lifter wasn’t the best design, looks like there might be a slight modification to the new run...but not positive
I hope the smooth bone 85s look similar to yours. That looks awesome. Sweet pen also. Never seen one of those.If you can, get both. I personally like micarta's feel, acrylics are for fountain pens! ;-)
Not exactly crown lifter, but close.

You can open a bottle with a bent nail in a piece of wood with a little bit of training. It seems to me that with the smallest amount of aptitude one should be able to operate these machines.
