I dont know what its really called but my mum called it that, its solid silver, about 8 inches long half is slim and half is thicker and as children we used it for bones ie to get the marrow out of them

That is exactly what they are for. Around here,we eat a lot of Osso Bucco (braised veal shank) and marrow spoons are a must. They are very thin and used for digging the marrow out of the inside of the bone. A very tasty treat.

Fishermen use a marrow spoon to find out what is in the stomach your catch, they then know what fly/bait to use.

They are just as you describe them and their usage is also as you have stated. Not used so much now they were an essential part of any kitchen in Victorian times.
