Got this at a recent antique sale. No idea what it's purpose and I've asked several people but nobody had any good ideas. Can anybody shed some light on it?
Hello, Possibly a part of, or piece of hardware "from" a tool? Regards, Lou
It resembles those odd lock mortise chisels that have a chisel on each end of a handle like that, one parallel to the handle and one at 90 degrees, for cutting in mortise-in locks in drawers; but it seems way too thick and clunky to be a lock mortise gouge.
