Default A knife ... for cork working ?

I post this one here as although it is a knife it is not a weapon.
Te guy who gave it to me was told this is for the cork working craft. The cuttler marked in the blade apparently no longer exists. Browsing on cork tools this model doesn't show up.
Anyone here familiar with these things ? The blade is slightly (but deliberately) curved, and only one side is edged ... sharp, but not sharpened ... maybe because it didn't see any use ?
The handle is well sized and the tang well secured; definitely for applying effort.
Total length 24 cms (9 1/2").
