    IDK, but prolly some sort of crimping tool. Like they use today for metal strap banding and the like. Could have been specific to a brand or device.

    Agree with pgprescott. It looks like a crimping tool for metal bands.

    Piney while I can't say with 100% accuracy, it looks real similar to the pliers we used years ago to crimp hydraulic lines to the pump on International Harvester combines.

    That is possible. Those people were small time farmers as well. Thanks for the input I figured if anyone had a clue it would be you.

    I thought for sure @SGH would say it's an anus-grabber.
