What the heck is this neat little tool

Post by BigBob »

This came with some tools when I got my 8520 and roundhead Colchester. It is ground and a neat tool, but I do not know what for.

No good. Those wrinkles aren't threads.

The machined tip looks to be for a punch as in punch and die set. However the convoluted head end is abnormal for die punches.
