See it he
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...m=330267764180 I've seen at least two others of this tool on eBay, and for one of them somebody sent an e-mail to the seller saying it was a file for filing down horse's teeth. Can anyone here say definitively whether this is a fish scaler or a horse-tooth file? I tend toward the fish-scaler theory, because the working surface doesn't look much like a file. |

I've got a couple of metal lawn chairs which have sat outside probably for the last 60 years, and though they show visible rust, they aren't close to being rusted through in any places. I asked a friend of mine who is an expert on metalworking, and he looked at the chairs and said they were low-carbon steel which is very resistant to rust. Also, it could be a scaler for freshwater fish. Or marine fish that had been rinsed. |

Could be, for really big fish, but it also looks similar to a tool I've seen farriers use to file horse HOOVES not horse teeth! -- Peace!

They don't all have that problem. Do all humans have an overbite? I only saw one horse with overgrown back teeth. When he was trying to chew grain, most of it was spilling back out because his mouth wouldn't close. TFM® |
