It is interesting, what are the handles made of, Micarta?
Not sure what it is... But in addition to a draw knife as above, it has some similarities with a "tanners fleshing knife", the straight handle on one side and T handle on other, as well as two blades.

How about a few more pictures of what appears to be the "blade", so we can see the edges.I found this tool in my grandfather's trunk and wonder if anyone knows what it is. He was a machinist during the Depression and until he retired sometime in the 1050's.

Utterly useless bit of industry trivia: American Can Company reinvented themselves as the financial services firm Primerica. See History of Primerica.He was a machinist for the American Can Company in Portland, Maine until his retirement. They, of course, are no longer in operation.
I am guessing here. Could it have been used for scraping in large diameter Babbitt bearings?
