GG’s,

This tool followed me home this evening. I suspect it is some sort of wire
crimper and/or cutter but I am not sure. It certainly does not cut 1/8 inch
braided steel cable, which is what I tested it on. I’m curious about its purpose
and how it is to be used.

A cursory google search did not provide any close matches.

The tool is marked “Sargent & Co, New Haven Conn, Made in USA” on one of the
jaws, and merely “Sargent” on each of the handles. No other identifiers are
present. It is a spring-loaded tool, in that the handles and jaws open by
themselves after being closed by hand.

Thanks,

JL
