I came across that is basically shaped like a pair of pliers except it has complementary small ovalular regions (~~3/16" long) dugout in the upper and lower jaws of the "pliers". The tool is probably at least 50 years old. I'm guessing it's for some type of clamps (the sort where you squeeze the ends together to release pressure). But that idea only holds water if the ends of the clamps are basically made out of steel wire. Any ideas? BTW, I might be able to part with this rare tool if the price is right! ; )
