    5 and a quarter by about 2 and a quarter inches. Made from cast iron. Seems to have graduated/alignment marks on the left side. It came in a box of old tools that dated early 1900s.

      Thanks so much. bobby725 I googled "saw set" and dug around in the images and found it.

      It's a raker gage:

      Thanks RobH, I had this thing for years And never quite figured out what it was.

      Heck I just been using is as a paper weight.

      Although it might be a saw jointer, I'm finding images of your item when I search either raker gauge or saw jointer. They are very similar tools, at this point I'm leaning towards saw jointer.
