Iron knife handle? Gun part?

[C volt]

Digging in a place where I’ve found hundreds of bullets and other times including pocket knives I came across this. I’m stumped. Knife/sword? Gun part? I’m stumped. It’s really heavy too. Def not a horse shoe part because of the Nicely drilled holes. Almost like holes on a butt plate

It's difficult to say at this juncture what it is exactly. Try soaking it in vinegar for a few days, or using electrolysis if you are able.

That's hard to tell what it might have been for.
Like said... if you could clean it up, maybe we would have a better guess...

IMO... this is not knife or gun related.
