what is it???????????

Post by oldc6 »

found this in some of my dads coffee cans.
we had talked years back about this and neither
one of us had a clue.

it measures 2 3/4 inches long . the round part
says Made in the U.S.A.
the words say HALF and HALF
it pivots in the round part as the one picture shows.

the only half and half that I know of is the dairy product.

I think you will find that to be pipe cleaner. Or perhaps better said a pipe tool. I'm not a pipe person but I use to work with a guy who was a pipe smoker.

The flat end is for packing the tobbaco, the other end is to clean it out.
