Title: If I'm still allowed to play What's-It, I have another one.
Post by: kxxr on January 17, 2012, 06:25:58 PM: This was just too cute to pass up. I don't know what it is but I like it. It's a heavy little thing, about 4 and 1/4" long, the handle is 1 and 1/8" wide and the tip is round and flat blunt - no diamonds, no wings, nothing like that. Just what you see here. I think. What's it for?

The tip is like a large diameter (maybe 10 or 12 gage needle size) but is flat as can be. the shaft is sturdy solid steel making it pretty heavy. Nice handle too. Must be a punch of some kind? Y'all aren't still mad about the backwards Phillips are ya?

Indeed you did nail the Phillips. I guess I'm SOL on this one :)
