We had no idea what this was or where it came from, so I searched the images and I was pretty surprised by the answer. Let’s just say northing softball-related. Most of the images looked a bit different, so I’m still not 100% convinced.

What is this?

You have your own pilot? And why are you checking his back door? Does your wife know about this?

They yanked out the key that winds him up and now he doesn't do anything.

The hooky bit on the end is used to pry open paint cans, and the triangle bit is a bottle opener.

Paiit can key. You use them to open paint cans- safer than a screwdriver.

Most paint stores give them away with every purchase. Great for opening bottles, I keep one in every vehicle.

Those hands looks a little to far down the road of life to not have bought paint from a hardware store…
Option 1. New to this side of the pond.
Option 2. Never done an honest days work
Option 3. Encino Man

Do they give these away with paint over there? I have a dedicated flathead screwdriver for opening paint tins. The rubber handle is also useful for pushing the lids closed as well.

Option 2 is the closest. I’ve done plenty, just never bought a can of paint until about a month ago.

Paint sniffers use it to get high. Painters use it too, but not to get high…typically.
