It's a tooth broken off one of those giant robot monsters that terrorize cities from time to time. I've seen actual footage of them--actually animated re-enactments on TV, on Saturday mornings.

This is a Kepler flangle. This tool is for unclasping jammed safety pins on baby diapers. They come in in pink and blue but black seems to be the most popular color, though o one knows why. Its not named after the inventor, who is unknown, but after Wilmont Kepler, who owns a collection of 1,874,999 of these, you seem to have the only one not in collection. Wilmont's people wil be visiting you soon, I suggest you cooperate.
