pin
Seamstress's pointed tool
Pins tend to be cylindrical (cotter pin, bowling pin, rolling pin) and may have a pointed end (safety pin, lapel pin) used for attaching or fixing.
If you pin one thing to another, you attach it using a pin.
If you pin some bad thing on someone, especially if you pin the blame on them, you hold them responsible.
To pin down someone or something is to ascertain details or definitive information.
