Bought this as a curiosity, stamped Japan, my guess would be maybe some sort of fish cleaning tool? TIA for any help

That's a weird one.

no idea, but it looks like it could come in handy if you were surrounded by thugs in a dark alley.......

I wonder if it is a harvesting tool for pineapple or something.....clip the thing off then stick it with the pointers. to move it.....but a fish tool sounds as good as any.

Roast holder.

 

[Joturkey]

That makes sense

Thanks all, time to clean it up and use it at holidays, seems the pointed end is used as a serving fork
