I found this in the latest bunch of Corvair parts. No idea what it is. Anyone?

At first I thought it was a Henway.

What's a Henway you ask?

About 4-5 pounds.

That's kind of what it looks like but I don't see how it would work unless it was really tiny tubing.

It has a patent number so I looked that up.

Looks like it's designed to make a precise diagonal cut in whatever is going through the rollers.

Except that there's no room for the chain, it resembles the jig used to sharpen chain-saw chains.

Craig got it!
I'm not sure what type of file would work with it.

Chainsaw chain sharpening maybe?

This would be for sharpening hand saws or perhaps band saw blades. A triangular file is used.
