I got this tool in a box of trapping gear and am not sure what it is exactly. I know its not a pig castrator! LOL It looks like some sort of scaping tool to me and thought it might possibly be used for working tanned hides. Can't say I've seen anything in a catalog like this tool either. It does look like it was made commercially for sale. Has anyone seen or used a tool like this and know what it is used for? Thank you for any insight on this tool!!

I agree with ya, looks like a leather working tool.


There comes a point liberalism has gone too far, we're past that point.

That's definitely a pig castrator if I've ever seen one..... which I haven't

The sharp side is for dry scraping hair,and the toothed side is a hide rake for removing heavy saddle meat..
never seen them together as one like that,must be for a machine application.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.
