Great knife, but I still can't figure out what the broken tool looked like, which has 2 notches for stripping wires

I guess you'd call this old boy a Cigar Jack.
All I could find out about it was that a small group of cutlers acquired parts from New York Knife Co., ground off tang stamps, and stamped them Eagle Phila. (Crudely)
Then assembled them into various Frankenstein like configurations. I think the spear was supposed to be the main, because it has the tang stamp. But it is mounted behind the secondary.

No idea what shape the secondary was originally, because it's really worn. No snap on that one, but at least it's tight enough to be relatively safe.
Ugly and beat up, but so am I.

My grandfather's knife, a Bargeon, which he carried every day and which has served him well. The blades are worn.
Many memories come flooding back when I hold this knife in my hand.

Had frost on the car windows this morning, but we've warmed up to fifty with pretty sunny skies and a light breeze. All in all a fine mid-March day
Saw some buds on trees. New crop of leaves on the way

Maybe a sheeps foot blade ?

Maybe it isn't broken, and is intended to strip battery cables, and other heavy wire?
