Old knife I found, help please with id

I found this old knife and can't seem to find anything like it online. Its made of brass. Its about 7-8 inches long. It has an eagle head on the end and the only markings are the A and the R on each side in the same spot. Any ideas what kind of knife this would be, and also its value, if any? Thanks!

Looks like an old letter opener or it may just be a decoration. The brass is probably worth more (at current metals prices) than the piece itself. Not only is it in fairly bad shape, but it's very poor quality as well.
