Unusual drill bit

[ppppenguin]

Any ideas what this drill bit is for? At least I assume it's a drill bit of some kind.

The sharp end is about 3mm across and semicircular in form.

The name on the shank is Stanley.

Yes, tools for everything, have used those bits before for oak work, here's yours truly doing some green oak frames and shots of other oak work on the same job:
