5. Pablo Ferreira

7. Algonkin
   August 7th, 2008 at 6:37 am

   Looks like an tool to extract a patient's skin during an operation.

   It is a holder for a joint of meat, one clamps the bone into the device and it enables you to carve it without burning your fingers.

9. Stjepan
   August 7th, 2008 at 6:55 am

   It's a lightsabre handle

10. Ezanee
    August 7th, 2008 at 7:03 am

    I would guess it's either a holder of something, like candles, mentioned earlier. Or, it is a meant as a lever component. These two are merited by the handle-like thing at one end, at the other end is a clamp. So... my guess is it's a holder-of-something.

    Or, you know. It's part of a lightsaber.

    I don't know what it is... But something tells me that if someone comes up to me holding one the best reaction is to run.

12. Gail Pink
    August 7th, 2008 at 7:34 am

    One of those fancy knives to make Radish Roses?

13. montyhaul

    Is it a chicken leg holding device, to stop your hands getting greasy??

14. Alex Wasserman
    August 7th, 2008 at 7:41 am

    Speculum

15. Tclash

16. subash

    An ice cream scoop!! a badly designed one?

17. k_sra
    August 7th, 2008 at 8:11 am

    I bet sidecar_jon is right. Looks like a good tool for clmaping meat to cut it.

18. cole
    August 7th, 2008 at 8:12 am

    This device would have been used, possibly originally in Germany, for the interrogation of alleged criminals. It would be inserted into a body cavity and tension would be released expanding the arms within said body cavity. Ouch!

19. Peter
    August 7th, 2008 at 8:14 am

    I guess it's a thumb- or fingerscrew.

20. matt

22. Carl
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:07 am

    Looks like a welding tool, used to keep you from getting burned while heating up the object?

23. Nick
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:08 am

24. Medic61
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:13 am

    It's a corkscrew or champagne bottle opener. Very pretty

25. Cynthia
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:13 am

    some kind of root vegetable thrower. like at carnivals. they would attach potatoes or what have you then try and see who could fling the potato furthest past the line using this device.

    or it's a citrus press.
    

26. Elle
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:16 am

    I think Alex is right, it's a speculum. Doesn't actually look a whole lot different from what they're using in the office these days... minus the screw...

27. Jimbo
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:17 am

    OBGYN tool to examine women.

    Or as George W. Bush says "so OBGYN's can show their love"

28. Jimbo

29. Tim Giachetti
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:34 am

    It's for clamping onto a shank bone (lamb) for easier carving.

30. AJ
    August 7th, 2008 at 9:46 am

    It's a nipple stretcher. It's used by breastfeeding mothers with inverted nipples whose babies can't obtain a latch.

31. Jerôme
    August 7th, 2008 at 10:05 am

    It's a french instrument called "Pince à Gigot". Sorry, i'm french so, it's a little hard for me to explain : you put it one the bone of a lamb or other animal leg in order to cut it more easily.
    but i think a picture will explain it better :

32. Mr Dale

34. lewis

35. Jose Galaviz

    Nutcracker?

36. Pierre
    August 7th, 2008 at 10:24 am

    It seems that only french people know this thing (Im french too), and I agree for the "pince à gigot" ( translated : lamb's leg clamp).

37. robin
    August 7th, 2008 at 10:48 am

    It's a torture device called the pear.

38. A. Robot
    August 7th, 2008 at 10:51 am

    Definitely a speculum, tighten the screw to narrow the tip for insertion, and loosen the screw to spread the love.

39. SenorMysterioso

43. shannon

    an old fashioned gynecological tool. yikes.

44. Jill Harness
    August 7th, 2008 at 1:49 pm

    Totally a nipple clamp.

45. Mel Phistopheles
    August 7th, 2008 at 1:50 pm

    It's a Kinky! There's nothing non-kinky that this thing can't be used for. Ever wonder where the adjective Kinky came from? Look no further. This is a Kinky, possibly one of the original kinkies. Oh you can take this thing around the block, if that's your thing, or just leave it where it is and all your friends will know about your "proclivities". I can't find my original Proclivity. It's kind of like a Kinky, but with TWO handles, instead of one. You can take it TWICE around the block, if you wish.

46. Rajelin
    August 7th, 2008 at 2:16 pm

    its an old olympic torch. they still used burning sticks of wood

47. redphone
    August 7th, 2008 at 2:57 pm

    My immediate fear was that it is gynecological in origin.

48. sybann

    Cherry pitter?

49. Bill
    August 7th, 2008 at 7:29 pm

    Probably used to extract eyeballs, or to, i dunno, make chowders.

50. Doug
    August 7th, 2008 at 8:00 pm

    A holder for a leg of ham when carving.

51. ted
    August 7th, 2008 at 8:11 pm

    They use these in Africa for removing the foreskin.
    Slide it on, tighten 'er up, and wait for the skin to go dead.

52. rosedarpam
    August 7th, 2008 at 8:50 pm

    It must be a pickle picker, for those pickle barrels at old timey stores!

53. sandalian

54. JC

55. Rob

56. Odile
    August 8th, 2008 at 2:28 am

    It is a tool used to maintain a leg of mouton when you carve it. Is fixed on the bone.

57. Tomquix
    August 8th, 2008 at 8:45 am

    Is it an antique paper counter? I used to use something similar in the printing trade to count sets of paper from a stack.

58. Randalll
    August 8th, 2008 at 8:59 am

    A 'Mefshal' or pig's tail straightener. Ancient Uzbek customs likened the pig to devil worship because of their winding tail. Before slaughtering a hog for consumption the tail was 'straightened'and the swine was ritually killed by a Precholphus, a butcher who was also an ordained preist. The only place in the world where you can still get Uzbek 'cleansed' pork in Queens, New York City.
