Is the lower end (left end on photo) sharpened, as if to drill or dig?

Nice work Papaw.  Bgarrett, what are the steps to posting that large photo. Mine, at 250kb look like oversized thumbnails.

Ooohrah indeed!

But...

"disappointed that its not a tool..."

Of course it's a tool.  A cobbler's tool.  Got shoes too tight?  Use this tool and make them fit.
