What is this?

Bought this at a local thrift store for 50 cents. At first i thought it was a scraper but all three edges are blunt and show no signs of ever having been sharp.

Is it the same as this? https://www.etsy.com/listing/708736664/antique-paint-scraper?gpla=1&gao=1&&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=shopping_us_a-craft_supplies_and_tools-tools_and_equipment-tools-other&utm_custom1=b2d2bc44-4973-4f1f-86e8-78910cb7f529&utm_content=bing_352012663_1304020940011896_815013 35122578_pla-4585100929079094:pla-4585100929079094_c__708736664&msclkid=fc0b3148c9e815a048126cfbbb0f6031 Looks like an old paint scraper.

No the 1 I have is completely blunt with absolutely no sharpness to it. I do have a newer paint scraper that looks similar to the one you posted but it also has rounded corners as well as pointed scraper sides.

It looks like an older shavehook, I have several newer versions made by Footprint. All three sides should be sharpened with a single bevel like a chisel or plane iron; then the tool can be drawn toward the user, shaving the wood. If the steel is too soft- the cheaper versions often were/are- then it is indeed just a scraper. I find them very useful either way

It's a paint scraper. Sometimes you don't want them to be sharp.
