    That's a piano tuning key I think.

    If it's not a piano tuning key thing.

    Is it for restraining sheep?

    Is every odd looking device in fact some form of sheep restrainer.

    Is all this restraint necessary anyway?

    It is a cork crusher. Used in chemistry laboratories to fit corks to non standard bottlenecks before neck sizes became more uniform.

    No - not an engraving chisel.

    Off to work now so nothing until after seven. In the case of two correct answers the more accurate and detailed will win. i.e. a description of how it is used rather than just a name.
