FIG. 4 shows a right side view of the embodiment;

FIG. 5 shows a left side view of the embodiment;

FIG. 6 shows a front view of the embodiment; and,

The broken line perimeters seen on the surface of the two-point discriminator are boundaries of the claimed design. These broken lines and the areas within them also form no part of the claimed design.

The broken lines shown on the tips in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1-7 show unclaimed surface texture, such as, for example, raised or recessed ridges.

The areas within the broken line perimeters may contain, for example, embossed or engraved numbers and letters. Specifically, the areas within the broken line perimeters may include numbers that indicate a discriminator interval for each tip (e.g., 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 12, respectively, in a counter-clockwise orientation). Additionally, or alternatively, the areas within the broken line perimeters may contain a central bore.
