Metal, wooden handle....appx 10" in length and just under 1" in width at "scoop" area.

I'm betting it is a wood chisel. Similar to the one second to the right below.

Is it one half of a mould for making silver bullets to use on werewolves?

The short handle implies it was made for use as a scoop.

But a very small scoop...

Going by the overall length, then the scoop can only be c 3" x 1" x 1"

Is this a stand-alone piece, or was it part of something bigger?

If it were a chisel it would be very hard to control with the wooden handle so far back.  And the metal from the handle to the scoop is long and slender and same diameter. Nothing to hold on to !!  Still think it was meant to go into an item,,(barrel or similar) to bring something out !!  Coffee beans, seeds,,,, would have to be small enough to fit in the scoop !!
Thinking out loud !!
