Hi Fernando,
I may be prejudiced, but I know one or two things about cutting up whales. One of the big points is that, if it was used as a flensing knife, you could probably smell the dead whale on the blade. It's quite hard to get that smell off. Also, flensers are basically glaives, and they are sharpened on the outer curver (think oversized butcher knife).
Does this artifact qualify by smell? I'd gotten the impression that it was sharp on the inner curve.
Maybe it's a royal banana thwacker from some smaller kingdom somewhere.
