Title: Fishing Pliers?
Post by: Carl on December 11, 2011, 08:04:35 PM

I have no idea what this tool is used for. It is ~8 inches long and the jaws open 3/4 of an inch.

Any ideas?

Looks like an  early hair curling iron.

Thanks- not the answer I expected given they were found in a tool box and the shaft is only 1/4 inch in diameter, but there you are.

i'll bet you could use them to put little rubber bands wherever you put small rubber bands  bob
