Found this in an old shed. Not sure what it is and was hoping someone did.

Are you near a farm? What part of the country? Was it stored with other items? If so, what (Ex: kitchen items, farm items, etc.)
Three things come to mind....
Is the middle blade sharp or blunt?

I am in Texas and in a rural place. It was in a small shed with many different other things really. A lot of jars, bug sprayers, knives, all kinds of stuff. Nothing that seems related to it though.
The blad in the middle is dull and I dont know if it was ever sharper than what it is at all. Does not look like it had been sharpened on. just looks like a piece of metal cut to size and used with its natural sharpness. Thanks for the reply.

Has the appearance of a "Seed potato cutter"...maybe??
-
Looks like for making cream corn !! The first set of cutters burst the kernels and the other cuts it from the cob !!
-
Mart, that is exactly what I was thinking if it was for kitchen applications....cre am corn maker!!! The dull straight blade would get all the juice and remaining kernels!
If it was for ranching....for a household it could have been used to separate broom corn.
(Mart and I are in Texas as well!)
