Well, I prep'd a stash of puzzles in case there was an unbearable slow down in the thread. ;-)
Try this one...

The mount for the straight-edge on an old mechanical drafting machine?

Looks like a blade to me, perhaps on a paper trimmer? |

Wow Ken, it must have been challenging to produce such an amazingly BAD image! |

Sadly, I am without a macro lens for awhile now. :( |

Hmmph. Well, after scrutinizing some more:
- It seems to have two screw-mounted shearing blades
- The surface of the blade "carrier" furthest from the camera and at far right in the photo is intended to ride on a surface, I think
- The blade furthest from the camera is intended to be underneath the material to be cut, and the nearer blade above
- The tool seems to be suited for slitting or slicing a thin sheet of material laid on a flat surface.

Man, I'm drawing a blank. It would seem intended for cutting a heavy material, but as to what, I have no idea.

Lead snips? (apologies in advance if that is correct, I'm off to bed)

Not for cutting heavy material... |
