Hello,
I am hoping someone can help me determine what this is/was used for. The arrowhead shaped tip is able to rotate freely. The rod is threaded about 40% of the length for travel of the eared piece.
I'm thinking it is used to tension something but what that might be I haven't a clue.
Thank you for your interest & insight

It's part of a shoe stretcher, you are missing the two wooden parts.

Now that I know what it is, I just need to come up with a more interesting use it.

I've seen a few of these over the years so I recognized it when I saw the photo.

I have had a shoe stretcher (always with the wood attached) and when RobH commented, it brought back my view of that shoe stretcher and the eared bolt fit my mental diagram and the 1/2 threading and handle fell in line.
