Friend brought this ladle by a few days ago, we don't do any ladle pouring but thought we would share this one with the forum. Someone was thinking when they built this one. Looks to be a real steady ladle and is quite heavy. Thoughts ???

I really like it. I bet it functions well. Short handle = smart
I'd almost bet that was meant for pouring Babbitt bearings.
It looks very awkward to try to pour into a mold.
Just my thoughts,

I'm with Robert, wouldn't work for me at all. The little Lyman dippers can't be beat for me and my 2-hole molds. That thing looks huge, I bet it's for bearings like suggested, or maybe plumbers.
