I got it from the machinist's estate I was clearing out a few months ago.

It is hardened and ground. Cross drilled for setscrews. The angles are
around 65 degrees. The holes are 7/16"dia.
The name stamped on it is the name of the owner (and presumably the maker)
and it gives the impression of the sort of tool you would make during your
apprenticeship.

It is very nicely made, but I'll be darned if I can figure out what it's
for.

The one photo doesn't show all the details of the block but it is
possibly for grinding tool bits of some type on a surface grinder.
