I'll agree, it started as a piston ring groove cleaner, cutters would've fastened on the stove bolt/nut. Someone has sharpened it to clean something else.

Don't see enough evidence or resemblance to any ring groove I ever used in past 40 years to think its a piston ring groove cleaner .

It doesn't look like any piston ring grove cleaner I
have ever used. I googled ring grove cleaners and it looks nothing like any of them. I have seen that tool before but I cannot remember its purpose. If I can remember, I will print off a picture and take around to my mechanic friends on Monday and see if 1 of them can tell us what it is used for.

I have one similar to that. Yours is missing the cutter that bolts on opposite the curve side. Since someone sharpened the curve side, is no longer useful as a ring groove cleaner

No one has sharpened the curve side,its made that way! I just linished it up to show one side of the blade for everyone.I’ve used and seen enough ring groove cleaners to know its not one.

  Well if it's not a ring groove cleaner then I have found an alternative
