A recent find. Not really in my field, but I couldn’t walk away from the knife show without buying something.
I’m guessing it’s Indian based on the Makara(?).

Help in ID’ing this knife(?)

Looks utilitarian to me. American made. I’ve inquired a Whaling Museum and they had no idea.
C. Wells & Sons were barn builders in the 19 - 20th cent.

Anyone knows what this was used for?

Very nice Sajen.
I have always like shell trumpets since I was young.
I have a similar Triton shell with the hole at the very end. I signaled the coming of the New Year a few nights ago with it.
