I need help identifying an old plumbing tool

Hi,



I found this old tool in my basement.



Does anyone know what it is or what it was used for?



Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

It's a faucet seat cutter.

Certainly, Neon. It looks like a ratcheting double-ended ballpeen hammer. Seriously... I don't have a clue. Possibly some sort of a specialty tool that had only one application such as a machine valve switch handle. If that is the case, the information may be next to impossible to find.

You must be from Flanders's neighborhood. The fat and greedy like to call them faucets.

happy to offend. :-)

so so happy

I guess it does come off as you offending me. Not what I meant, but if it gets you off, I'll run with it :-)

Looks like a nice one, I'd keep it, considering the junk they now make.. Lot of people still need them.
