Hello,

My apologies but are we quite sure this is not just someone's reworked rail spike? Similar dimensions and rough look.

Rail spikes are a favourite for blacksmith/bladesmith exercises in making knife/axe blades and hammers heads.
See this example


I also have teeth from 19th century agricultural machinery with very similar stamps
