Fishing Pliers?
« 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.

Yep, that's what it is.  Looks pretty much standard issue.
