I can't quite make it out - could be for removing pickles/olives from a jar - if the sides are cut off - looking at the very first picture it almost looks like it could "hang" on the side of a jar for filling it
??????????????????
pic is small - wish it was bigger

not knowing how "strong" it is - possible ice cream scoop - can't be a gravy ladle - do the sides turn up - that's what it looks like -
can you make the pic bigger?

got me thinking - could be a scoop - or a butter scoop

are there any names or markings on the scoop or the wood?

the fact that it is "sideways" it has to be some sort of a scoop

(geez make me think..........my poor brain cells - LOL!)

MamaM double click on the images of the "thing" and it will show you a larger image!

Calling CanMan.......Calling CanMan>>>>Do you know what it is???:confused: I sort of have a feeling he will know!

Never seen one before, but looks like either an ice cream or a butter scoop or something of that texture. Looks like the "spoon" is dragged along the surface which causes whatever to curl up on the spoon.

That's my guess.
