    I bought this at a small farm (yard sale). The owner (in his 70's or older) said it was included in a bunch of tools that his uncle gave him, and that it had been used on his farm. He didn't know what it was...nobody seemed to.

    It's iron and about 7 inches long.
    Looks like some sort of "brush"? Scrubber?

    Hoping someone can identify...
