256114 scott grandstaff <scottg@s...> 2015‑09‑05 actual mystery tool
Well yard sale today! One of my favorite pickers came to town
with a load of junk.
   I creamed it early :)
I found this tool among other things I needed oh-so-badly. heeheh.

    Wish the Millrat was here to make fun of me.
Its probably something from one of the kinds of mills he worked in,
  instead of the kind I know.  All mills is not the same mills.

    Its elegantly forged, the inlaid hard steel cutting bits at each end 
are very apparent. It is deeply stamped but with a crude stamp. It 
really looks like City Tool Works, Cal to me
   The Cal is very clear. The rest well....... not so much

  Anyone have ideas? guesses? Could be for wood, could be for barnacles 
or grinding stones for all I know. Never saw the pattern.
