A presumed bronze spur - advice needed
#15
A style of roman razor in some museums have a very similar bronze handle fitting onto a small iron blade - I don't think the bronze handle was riveted on, maybe soldered on and the 'flats' on yout item would suit soldering your item to a flat metal surface. The size seems applicable - see 'Roman Razors' images on the internet ; one image on there resembles your mystery object.
