Hello,

It's a hay saw for cutting bundled hay or silage. hay saw

Right, nothing to do with wood. By the way, is your link to the registration page of a digital photo server intentional? Do you get commission?

that was one of my guesses, we had a lot of weird guesses. One friend was convinced it was a weapon ...

I think dropbox is available to anyone, anywhere. No commissions, I did get rewarded with free storage space, but I've already maxed it out. It works well.

I thought they used them for sawing ice from lakes and ponds.

No, that's definitely a hay knife. An ice saw is similar to a pit saw for timber, only without the pitman.
