Like the others, it is simply a stamped and formed shoehorn.  It was the size I was looking for and was inexpensive. I suppose buying a higher priced shoe horn would have come better finished.  I took 400 grit along all the edges and took off the edges.  The steel was marked up from the forming so I polished it and the edges on my buffer.  Now it is a respectable shoe horn but without the final finishing I agree the sharp edges would have made it unusable.
