A recreation of the hard to find Rocket brand pencil sharpener used in G. Harry Stine's and Orville Carisle's original model rocket prototype, circa 1957. This nose cone has been recreated down to the ribs from photographs and old timer's tales. It's sized to fit the Estes BT-50. I've whipped up a cap, for your convenience. Although those would have been carved out of balsa back then.
