✅ SOLVED Barn Wall Find

[Yak1366]

I was going through some pieces hanging on a barn wall the other day. Amongst a myriad of horseshoes, plow blades, etc, I spotted this little hook. I won't taint this post by stating what I think it is because I can't find a similar example online.

2-3/4" Long, 1-1/4" Wide

Looks like a hay bail hook to me. Kind of on the small side, but definitely looks like one.

Strap end/snap. Used for many things.

Or, could have once been part of a military knapsack strap.

Wow, I found one of those under a tree root ball last spring, same condition too

Yep it could have held many things , if it had a spring held closing piece it would resemble a US Sword or other tool hangar.
