No, but it does belong in the high tech category.
Hi Gerard, In Australia they are called mashers - I had one like this when I was first married but with overuse it eventually fell apart. Di
Gerard, I was wrong in any case but it was fun to have a guess.
This is from last week's post, you've got two of them correct, 272 and 277. There is an answer link at the bottom of the set, just after photo 277.
279. Tool for removing/tightening bicycle wheel nuts, and doing other maintenance on bicycles. 280. Electronic metronome for musicians (my son uses one for guitar practice). 281. ? 282. Part of an earpiece? 283. ?
A pleasure.

282 is the tool that is included in a tire repair kit to rough up the inner tube before applying the patch.

I think this is probably a can opener, but I'm open to the possibility that this could be incorrect. You are the second person to suggest it could be for tire repair, please let me know if you are aware of any web sites that could verify your idea. One reason I think it's a can opener is that the blade is adjustable, it slides so that when the point is pierced into the center of the lid, the blade will be able to cut any size can. I still haven't been able to find out why the back end is shaped like it is, though it was suggested that possibly it's used to pry out the lid once you are done cutting.
Are you sure you're referring to the correct picture? 282 shows up for me as the one they looks like the strainer for a drain (and even look like it has some of the rubber cement on it).

You're right, I was referring to 283. If you haven't already found out by reading other posts, 282 isn't used for repairing tires, it's a microscope photo of something 125 microns in diameter.

Tack puller is correct, scarificator sounds like a good secondary use for the saw blades.
