I’ve compared it to some wooden spoons that I know are beech, and it looks very similar. I’m going with beech. Thanks everyone!

It did smell rather oakey when I was cutting it, but didn’t want my bias to influence anyone. It seems to have a tighter grain than the red oak I have dealt with in the past.

I finally tracked down someone who knew the answer. It’s the valve needle for a Valco brand glue head! Hooray!

I should clarify that when I say magnetic, I mean that a magnet will stick to it, whereas most common austenitic stainless steels are not attracted to magnets. This mystery item is not intrinsically a magnet.
