Help in ID’ing this knife(?)

Looks utilitarian to me. American made. I’ve inquired a Whaling Museum and they had no idea.
C. Wells & Sons were barn builders in the 19 - 20th cent.

Anyone knows what this was used for?

Very nice Sajen.
I have always like shell trumpets since I was young.
I have a similar Triton shell with the hole at the very end. I signaled the coming of the New Year a few nights ago with it.

Barung, Bola, Bolo

While on a road trip, my wife wanted to stop at the Desert Caballeros Western Museum, in Kingman AZ. This is part of their display. I inadvertently left out the Boleadera out of the photo.
