Anybody know what this is?

It's definitely not a cheese tester. I have four of those,
and none of them look anything like this. It might be a
curd knife (used to cut the curd during cheesemaking),
but it seems rather narrow for that, and the tines seem
too close together.

Could it be a curd cutter for cottage cheese? Since it looks handmade,
it may be on-of-a-kind, made to the owner's specs.

Maine? I wonder if it could have been a comb or rake to get blueberries
off the berry bush?

I'm pretty sure Mark's trying to build a rocket ship.
