   This is probably the best way to open up a boiled egg!

   Yes, it's definitely a tool to chop the "head" of a boiled egg.

   I think my grandmother used to have one of those - and it is exactly for opening eggs.

   It is a tool for opening boiled eggs.

   I have used this exact model and can categorically say that it is rubbish.

   I busts the shell into tiny bits which make your egg gritty.

   Stick to a teaspoon.

   Well, so many upright variants and I don't know what to suggest, but

   1. Torture instrument (may be a penis cutter, or less terrible is a tongue cutter, hands cutter)
   2. Strange pair of scissors
   3. Baking cup LOL

   I know what it is, it's a jar-opener, the spikes bore into the jar and gives you a better grip to open the jar.

    egg opener / jar opener / walnut opener

    It's a virginity keeper: the girl ties it around her waist using the loops on the device, and when a guy tries to get lucky on her, *chop* the penis is cut off.

16. Dan
    November 29th, 2007 at 7:14 am

    it's a device used for making sausage. it pinches the sausage tightly in the casing, making links.

17. headsign
    November 29th, 2007 at 7:29 am

    It's for removing the schmuck from the schlong.
    Eventually, apart from that, also for removing the top from eggs.

    Long ago when the tin can was first invented people thought it a great idea. however no one had yet invented a good way of opening the can. This contraption is one of the first attempts at a can opener before we arrived at the one we all know and love.

19. Jae
    November 29th, 2007 at 7:48 am

    Er...a bottle capper?

    Hosnap! I found one of these in the kitchen drawers when i was little and it had to be my favorite "not-a-toy" anytime i could get my hands on it. But yes, other than working as an excelent monster mouth when chasing the little sister around, it can sometimes be used to cut the shell off the top off of a soft (or hard) boiled egg.

22. George McKree

    It's a device that cuts off the top of an egg

    I'm sure it's an egg topper, but the phrase "Lorena Bobbitt's Yard Sale" keeps coming to mind...

25. Randall

    This is a perfect example of 'Nefas-Fabrika-Legitimus' or using the wrong thing in the right way. The device is a Crismus Freg, a handheld toll for primping a ruff collar. It works perfectly but no one wore ruff collars in 1923, when Mr. Rich Crismus invented it. After financing the manufacture of 10,000 of these, his backer hit upon a brilliant idea and put an ad in a local newspaper with a picture of the freg with the title 'What is it?' The correct guesser won $25. After several unlikely suggestions a use for this device was discovered and now one can be found in nearly every hard boiled egg eating household in America.

    Looks like the tool the doc used when I was circumcised.

    Ouch, it still hurts.

27. Skipweasel
    November 29th, 2007 at 9:07 am

    It's a thing for getting Boy Scouts out of Girl Guide tents.

    This tool cuts the top of the egg (little or big endian ^^)

30. Patrick
    November 29th, 2007 at 9:37 am

    I've seen these before and they are used to cut the end of a cigar to prep it for smoking. A well made cigar often has sealed ends and needs to be cut so that they can be properly lit.

31. Robert
    November 29th, 2007 at 9:37 am

    It's a jar or lid opener.

    It is used to cut the tops off of soft boiled eggs and I've been looking for one of these for ever. Where did you find it? Williams-Sonoma doesn't sell them anymore.
    I like a 4&1/4 minute soft boiled egg.

44. Rosi
    November 29th, 2007 at 1:56 pm

    OH I actually know this one! It's for taking the tops off boiled eggs!
    But this looks like it's mated with a pair of scissors and had horrible mutant offspring... maybe the one I have is just crippled (its got no handles, just two buttons you squeeze together)

45. Blomp
    November 29th, 2007 at 1:57 pm

    A beer bottle cap crimper.

46. Ali S.
    November 29th, 2007 at 5:55 pm

    It looks like one of those wine bottle openers where you cut the foil and pull.

47. Laurel
    November 29th, 2007 at 6:20 pm

    It's a jar opener...... like the kind Grams used to use to open up them canned peaches!

48. nick

49. Evan
    November 29th, 2007 at 9:07 pm
