Kanske… en grunka för att slipa knivar?
Har i varje fall inte sett dess like. Fågelholk.
I think it’s a chisel.
I’d say that’s some sort of lighter.
Hmm… a pipe? A kind of syringe? A vortex for another universe?
Can you post shots at a couple more angles? It is hard to see the other end or the relative proportions.
I tihink it’s an old yarn but I’m not sure.
I’m guessing but is something for drawing samples from a barrel
After your tips, I’m pretty sure that it is a tool to repair fishing nets Thanks!
Did you figure out how it is used? Does the base that it is sitting in serve a purpose?
Dave, I think the thing you were thinking of might be called something like a ‘wine thief’. I have no idea what the thingamajig might be but I suspect it is something else.(/wrong)

It’s a knife sharpener, like this
It’s a light-saber. An elegant weapon for a more civilised age…
I was wondering where that went…
