Looks like something used in an anvil, possibly for shaping light material or leather.

Boy that looks familiar.
I'm going to say it's used for leveling or finding a direct line. Like on either a plumbob or when using a transit :confused:

I never knew it had a name other than thingy, so I used my 'call a friend' card. It is called a Blowhard Stake and is used for forming on an anvil and comes in many shapes.

It is a Metal workers's blowhorn stake . Used to form metal, usually lighter material. I'll acknowledge pitw for identifying this item.
