GS find today, came from a machinists tool chest.

It is teeny-tiny, handle reminds me of a watch/clock makers tool, the handle is
so slight—at narrowest point is only 1/4” diameter. However the wear pattern is
quite a bit too rough for watch/clockwork (like hammering out dents in
pocketwatch cases)

and it has been used, the wear pattern is seen here..it is disticnctly one sided

It is so totally reminiscent of the wear pattern on rawhide hammers that I’ve
seen from the folks who make cutting dies for cardboard boxes, and the form is
also similar to lead-workers mallets....except it is so slight and light that it
wouldn’t generate much force, ergo likely intended for a light application, but
for what?

Anyone got any  other ideas? Love to hear conjecture

I passed up on the plebian scissors, but couldn’t pass up the Starrett
toolmakers calipers and misc

Love the round shaft toolmakers calipers
