Curious though, what is disappointing about the smaller magnets? Just not enough lifting power? Appreciate any advice. Thanks 👍

Yep! Remember if what you're recovering is heavy in the water it'll weigh more when it breaks the surface.

Ive recently (this last year) purchased a couple of the new NeoMag from the more reputable vendors. Pretty disappointed so far in the sub1000# magnets.
I had better luck in the 80s with speaker magnets😀
These new ones I have the largest being a 750# single sided won't pull much out of the mud or to large. No matter how sloooooow or gentle you are.
Thinking about one of these next..........

I believe the top one is a single magnet and my 2nd choice is 2 magnets in one case.
And do remember that the eyebolt position does make a difference in fishing style. Toss and drag style or dipper style. Both style can be done with both magnets but easier to drag with a side mount and dip with a top mount🤘
Hope this helps ya buddy.

I would take it to a local museum or historical society. They might have a better idea of what its purpose is 'cause it sure doesn't look like any file I've ever seen!
