Torpedo (inert) or Shell

Cylindrical wooden object tapering to a flat-pointed end, fitted with a metal cap on the opposite side. The metal component secures the structure and has a central hollow opening, suggesting it may have been designed to hold an internal charge or powder.

The item resembles a practice torpedo or inert artillery shell, possibly used for training or display. The wood shows signs of age, weathering, and exposure, indicating prolonged contact with the elements or storage in a marine or military environment.
