Equipment – Identifying a Cutting Spatula with Holes

equipment

What is this tool? What is it called and what is it for?

Mysterious artifact (description below)

It's like a steel angled spatula with a cutting end and holes on the tip. It's not big (see the finger for reference), little more than a centimeter wide in the tip. The cord in the photo is just something in the floor.

I've tried to find this in Google Images several ways to no success.

It's a zester, for getting zest off of citrus fruit.

The photo from that Wikipedia article shows it in use:
