Title: Not quite scissors
Post by: moparthug on August 02, 2019, 04:40:45 PM

These are scissor shaped but it seems these were made this way and not adapted from an old pair. No cutting edge, everything is dull or rounded off. Looks like a garlic press but there are no holes on the bottom. And what's up with the 3 "legs" for holding it off the table? My wife guessed an old doctors tool, I just don't know, it's odd. 6-1/2 long with a 1-1/2 x 1/2 inch (cup?) on the side.

They look a bit like candle wick snuffers/Trimmers.
