The scraper if it is the same one - is a sheet of metal that is a triangle -
each edge is made a scraper. The center is then screwed into a long handle.
I've never seen a long one. Would think it hard to use.

I suppose you could grind down the faces if you could hold it somehow.

I have need of an old tool called a 3 cornered scaper. It is at first
sight, similar to a triangular file, with no teeth. Does anybody know
of a place in the UK where one can be purchased? Or failing that, I was
informed that such an implement can be manufactured from an
afformentioned triangular file, with the teeth ground off it by a
grinding wheel, and three fine edges left on it. Does anyone have any
experience of this.
