Default Boarding pike? What is it?

Hello all,

A friend asked me to try to identify this item for him. I know it isn't really under the banner of ethnographic but I thought someone here may know what it is. I don't think it is an elephant goad due to its size. Maybe a boarding pike/spike/hook? Or an whaling flensing tool?

All sugggestions gratefully recieved.

Cheers - Russel
