A type of weaving comb?
Lucet seems most likely, not all have holes - see pic below.

As i pointed out before, this would not make a very effective lucet as the forks are rounded and slope inwards. The cord would slip off while working. Look at the design of all these other lucets. The folks bow outward to help keep the cord on.
We are spending an awful lot of time on an object which i have serious doubts is any kind of weapon.
