Another OT Identification Question - Whatizzit ?
We found this in my deceased (at 95 years) father-in-law's tool chest. We have no idea what it is.... He worked at the General Electric Turbine plant for most of his employed life, starting work there when he returned from service in the South Pacific and ending as General All-Round Machinist when he retired. But it certainly doesn't appear to be anything to do with being a precision machinist...
Any ideas would be helpful. The handle isn't damaged and is bent at that (roughly) 45 degree angle - and it is a two-piece tool, one piece sliding front to rear by almost 1.5"
