What is this Thing? Oyster Farming Tool?

One of the tools I've come across while working for an oyster breeding program. It's great for knocking barnacles and spat off oyster shell. The rumor is that a past employee got it from France about 5-8 years ago.

As you can see, it's a little over a foot long. Although I'm assuming it was made for oyster farming/processing, it's not inconceivable it was designed for something completely different.

I'm posting for any information or insight that may help me get my hands on a few more of these. Thanks!

go to a machine shop or black smith, it looks like cut plate steel with a generic handle. Anyone who makes tools can make that

The true purpose for this tool is a dildo for those who dare to try
