Ok you folks helped me I.D. an old meat grinder so here's another mystery to ponder upon:

Found this behind an old 18th century farmhouse which is now a tool museum and park, there are hiking trails behind the manicured property and I found this on the trail between the back stone wall and the "Great White Oak" (it's a big 'ole dead tree stump) park area.

Cleaned it up and found no markings, haven't gone back or been in the buildings of the museum yet but if it's something that maybe dates back to when it was an actual farm I'd like to give back to them.

Any ideas?

I think finding the exact same design is like pulling a needle out of a hay stack...There must be litterely 1000's upon 1000's of door knockers, and its not against all odds that it is possible a drawer handle part as well.

Found the same design, can also find needles in haystacks with my Garrett 2500.
