If you are handy why not take a sewing needle insert it in a length of dowel 
for a handle and grind out part of the eye loop leaving a slight hook.Arkansas

But the link leads to a video, which demonstrated a needle which helps to split 
a thread, It's in German, so I'm pretty sure. <G>




Not sure whether this is the same tool, but Marc Petitjean has a bodkin 
especially for splitting thread, that is basically a sowing machine needle with 
a handle. I’ve made a number of these myself over the years (to sell and to 
give away); they’re dead easy to make. Get (buy, or pilfer someone’s sewing 
basket) a heavy sewing machine needle, like a jeans needle, and attach a 
handle. Viola...
