What Am I Used for?

[BeeZee]

carves whale bone or ivory

[R-C]

No not used by the vet. And not used for carving whale bone or ivory.
Something very common, a part of an animal that we see, use, or wear frequently, which can be carved in some cases.
I thought this was going to be an easy one. I guess because I have used the tool.

[BeeZee]

a brush or comb

[Shax]

Does it do this?

[R-C]

No none of them.

Big hint think Skin

[Shax]

Aha!

[R-C]

Yes! Finally! It is a swivel knife for carving designs into leather. I used to make a lot of leather stuff that I carved.
You get to go next!

Didn't Shax post a yellow thing for us to guess what it was or did I imagine it.

I was going to say it was a bottle cap opener or lid opener.

[Shax]

Yes, I did. It was there yesterday...don't know why it disappeared!
And no, not a bottle opener...

[GR@PH;<'S]

Shax,
Looks as if the gremlins have been hard at work as it looks as if a few post have gone astray as I did post to this yesterday just as the forums sever went down so my guess is that there are posts left in cyber space ant way
I do not mind posting my guess again.
Is it a Cigar cutter.

GR@PH;<'S   

[Shax]

Not cigars, but it is a cutter. Usually in the kitchen.

[GR@PH;<'S]

Depending on it's size would it be used to cut cucumbers.

GR@PH;<'S   

[Shax]

Not cucumbers. A little smaller...

[Temmu]

[Shax]
