We received this tool at the Cherokee County Historical Museum and have no clue what it is. Does anyone know what it is and what it may have been used for?

I recall seeing something like this on the wall of my grandmother's porch. It was used for clamping the tail of a catfish when it was being skinned. Then she'd pull off the skin with pliers and a knife. As resourceful as she was, it was probably repurposed from whatever it was originally made for, though.
