What is it?
 
2 Attachment(s)
This may be right up Muv's alley. The one end says GI. Britain. Under that it says Tool Steel, Hardened and Ground Edges. Under that it says L&M in a diamond shape. Down on the rectangle it says: British Buttner Patent App 249243/45


Thank you, Sandy

According to this site http://a1scrapmetal.blogspot.com/200...h-buttner.html It's a "reamer".

Reamers are used for cleaning out/smoothing "holes". This one happens to be for cleaning out the bowl of a pipe. (Tobacco pipe)
