Some better pictures. One could certainly stab with it but not cut.

I cannot rule out European folk art. These pictures are from two old books "Peasant Art In Roumania, {note the spelling} 1929", and " Hungarian Peasant Art, 1958". It is not the sort of knife a European would eat with. It could be some sort of table knife or spreader or even a tool associated with a craft activity? I really do not think it is in anyway British folk art. Any folk art collectors with us here?

It is even possible that it is something like I suggested, the form is not unlike the illustrations.
