Help me figure this one out?
« on: March 18, 2021, 04:57:53 PM »
Tool is made of high quality steel, would not have been cheap.  Bottom jaw fits between the top jaws as shown in first picture.  When open there are a couple of inches between the openings.  Both jaws have grooves on the side shown in the last picture.  However the center jay is beveled on the other side and matches a bevel on the stationary jaw---and both bevels are fairly sharp.  As a guess, I figure it might hold something with the grooves and cut it off with the bevel????

It's a double crush emasculator for farm animals.
I have no clue how I knew this, probably from watching animal planet or something.
