Description from the seller

an incudine da falce (often technical jargon call it a "stake anvil" or "field anvil")
It is a traditional tool used by peasants for the glancing of the sickle (the operation of sharpening or maintaining the blade edge).
components
• The horn: The pointed part on the left is used to work specific curves of the blade.
• The table: The central flat part is where the edge of the sickle rests to be hammered.
• The vertical rise: That curious mushroom-shaped or pestle-like element on the top serves as a guide or to refine particular angles during hammering.
in good condition."
