That is the knob from the handle of a fishing reel. Or a choke handle knob. Unless the hole doesn't go all the way through, if that's the case I don't know.
 

Maybe some more pictures might help, Like something to compare size :) Plus better pictures of the bottom. Put something in there we all know we can compare it to . Like maybe a quarter

Thank you! Will do. 😊
 

Looks like it was cut off of something. Scrap brass now.
 

It looks like it could be railroad or steam engine related.
I don't know what it is. ..But it's a darn nice one!..

My son said it broke off his sword handle. It was on a hill in my backyard when I was weeding I found it. I don’t really know though. Thank you for your input!

Yes it does. My son said it broke off of his sword handle. I don’t know that for sure. Thanks!
