My impression is that it’s a knife used for equine hoof care. But I could be wrong.

I think it, too, is a horseman's knife / multitool. Out of the UK.

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

I agree, Horseman's Knife. ::tu::

The screws are there to facilitate impromptu harness or bridle repair.
