She thinks it is a hand-forged and probably imported, and probably an otter trap, and the seller lives near the White Sea, so Scandinavia is nearby. To me it is definitely a stop loss of some kind, don't want to get my foot caught in it......jk Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free. What's supposed to be ain't always is.

After depressing spring, opened jaws were held in flat position by dog with trigger/lever. This trap was set perpendicular to otter trail or slide and fired by animal hitting the trip wire; then getting squeezed between clutch jaws. Neat European trap...I have several models with/without teeth.

There's a short vertical pipe on one end, for a tapered wooden peg that you tie a piece of string to. It's a very mean piece of iron, shuts instantly and with a lot of force.
