Tractor part. It's from a sickle bar mower.

Over the years, here on TNet, that "relic"has been the common item asked "what is it". I have found my share of them.

It's called a guard, the replaceable knives are called sections, so it's actually a section guard. At least that's what it was called in western Oregon when I was involved with making hay.

It's from a sickle bar mower.

So... Technically it COULD be a war relic.
