Off Topic What’s this knife/sheath sitting on?

[Wild Willie]

I never minded bio, I did passably well (enough for my aas in conservation before giving up on school altogether) in college.

Is is perhaps a shield on a monument of some sort?

 

[RayseM]

I blame it on a truly incompetent bio instructor. I have been an avid naturalist all my life. That guy just couldn't inspire.

No to your guess.

The bottom side of a bird bath?

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

All ya’lls guesses are awesome!

 

[RayseM]

The bottom side of a bird bath?

No but that is an excellent guess. Not a bottom at all.

 

[beeinak]

A pith helmet left outdoors for years!

 

[J. Doyle]

On old Iron cooking pot.

 

[RayseM]

No to the above. Though, it has been outdoors for many years.

Note the chip and ignore the whiteish surface.

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

Ray!!! I have noted the chip. Lol. Where is the “hair pulling” emoji.

 

[RayseM]

I guess that was directed to John as a old iron piece would likely not be chipped.

Bigger clue photo or 2 tomorrow for y'all. Hope you still have some hair left by then Coleman and it's not all pulled out or singed off.

Is it a stone cap for a fence post possibly?

 

[RayseM]

You are getting closer. Not stone, no post.

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

Fire hydrant cap?

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

Boat dock tie/cleat?

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

Fountain?

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

You’re killing me here!!

I gotta work tomorrow…I’m gonna be up all night! Haha!!

Come on guys…help me out here.

 

[Sharp & Fiery]

Birdbath?

 

[RayseM]

How can it be a birth bath? Fire hydrant cap is a very good guess except...

OK - let's sleep on its. More mañana.

Well, you gotta squint and hold the phone just right!

One more guess…a cannon base/barrel? The back end?
