had a question about the attached pic part. Honestly not a joke. I just thought I would try my luck here.
I like fidgets and I found out China has a many types, quality. attached a picture of the part I’m looking for and then the part in the actual fidget is in the second picture. unfortunately, I can’t find that specific part anymore
did research and found its probably a pawl commonly made for bike hubs? I found a few listings, but none of them are quite the same as the first attached pic
is this some sort of custom thing they made or is this something that’s recognizable by anyone here?
thanks!

Ooof that’s a tough one. Yea it looks like a bike hub pawl, but not one I’ve seen before. Pawls are in so many things though. Could be from a socket wrench or some other toy.
Edit: looking again don’t think it’s a bike hub pawl, unless it’s a super cheap one. Most of them don’t have a spring setup like that in my experience.
White industries sells pawls like this for hubs. Check out their site or send them an email
If it’s just a fidget thing… see if you can 3D print a set. They might not have the same weight to them, but you could manipulate the tooth end geometry to give it a softer or clackier click, depending on what you’re looking for.
