It's a guide for setting the teeth on big crosscut saws.  The guide is
laid on a tree stump, the saw is laid on top the guide and the saw teeth
are bent with a hammer to match the angle of the guide.

There's an illustration of its use in the Crosscut Saw Manual.  Type
"crosscut saw manual' into an Internet search engine and one of the
results should be a link to a pdf of the manual.
