    Found this at an antique store. I would love any help identifying it. It's about 9" long. The two "hooks" are about 5" apart. Many thanks in advance...

      Just a guess - this reminds me of a type of spike that is used to install rain gutters which have a rolled front edge. You start with the little pivoting piece being on the opposite side of the bar as currently shown. Also, the rod is upside-down now.
