Gun Tool...or just a Tool?

Found this in an old area this evening...my first impression was a gun tool but I really have no idea.

I don't think it is a gun tool ..It almost looks like it could be an OLD cast iron bottle opener?

Yeah, I thought bottle opener at first as well but I don't think so...it has a screwdriver end and the hole is not decorative or for hanging...

You can green check it all you want, that doesn't make it so. Look at the scale picture. Unless that is the hand of a giant, that tool is too small to open a beer bottle. And why is there a hole in the shank just above the blade? I believe it to be a screwdriver, probably from somebody's shooting bag.
Yeah, I'm back.

can't it do both?

Have you tried opening a bottle with it, as a test?
