This one's been bugging me for a long time, about 2 1/2" long, knurled two placed sharp high knurls, flattened between the knurls, round outside them, one end has a notch and the other sharpened down to a small rounded tip. I thought maybe for someone who has to untie knots a lot in the hobby or job?
No writing or marks, and I've spent a lot of time looking in google images to no avail.
Thanks,
parts

Or walnut pick. My grandma always had a big bowl of whole walnuts on her intable. In the bowl was two tools, a cracker and a pick for getting the nut outta the shell. This looks like the pick tool.

It's a spring installation tool, for tension springs.

It's a "soon to be locked because a of a bad title" tool....

I'm thinking that would be great for the boogers that are deeper than the "2nd knuckle".....
The knurling helps you get a good grip as well as twirl it so the notch can wind up the longer ones.

Center right and second in from it have the slot. Lobster pick I think I make have heard somewhere before.

I looked up shellfish picks and they bear similarities but are twice as long.

Hmm, sending it to you helps both of us then. I won't have to see it and wonder anymore and your "booger" problem will go away.
