Hi folks,

I have this mystery device lying around. It appears to have been hand scraped, and looks more like a measurement tool than a pressing or forming device. Anyone know what it is? It looks cool, but I'm trying to work out if it's worth keeping. Here are two pictures. This is not a quiz. I really don't know:

Thanks!

They're both scraping masters. One for checking flat surfaces, the
other for dovetails.
