Please help ID this Iron and Brass tool

[vhs07]

It has a patent date of June 5, 1900 on it. The brass cutting part on the bottom has an adjustable knife sort of like a plane. The pointed tip look like it would fit in an old hand drill.
I searched google patents for this date and found a tenon cutter that had a similar cutting part, but nothing else.

Looks kind of like a dowel rod turner. For a lathe setup?

 

[aka da Prof]

yup, dowel rod turner for hand brace---e.g. 'brace and bit'

Looks like you called it. Tenon cutter for hand drill (brace).

After relizing it was a tenon cutter I found it is a E.C. Stearns adjustable hollow auger Tenon cutter.
Thanks for the help.

I sold a similar cutter on Ebay a couple of years ago. Bought it in a 5 gallon bucket of misc. for $2.
Sold for 185.00
Apparently...very collectible.
