It is made by SturdeSteel. It basically looks loke a long post hole digging shovel, however the blade has been relieved and cut out of the center leaving a blade on the end with 3 tines left in the center. I for a reference of a similiar style shovel on an English which referred to it a a "clay shovel". What is it used for? I found a unique shovel at an estate sale. It is made by SturdeSteel.

One is 10 feet long a spade. The other is 8 feet long and is dished on the bottom to get the loose dirt out of the deep hole. The markings on them are SEPT 55 No. 2 Is this 1855 or 1955 and is there a market for them. I will probablly put them on Ebay. I found two long shovels. One is 10 feet long a spade.
