HI
could there have been a spring loaded blade, with the blade being propelled forward on depressing one of the triggers and then allowed to be put back on depressing the other trigger?

WOULD LEAD MUSKET BALLS FIT IN THE TUBE?. THE TWO TRIGGERS COULD HOLD THEM IN AND BOTH ARE DEPRESSED TO LOAD OR TO RELEASE THEM ONE AT A TIME AND THE TEETH AND FLEXIBLE JAW HOLD THE BALL SO THEY COULD BE TAKEN AND PUT INTO A GUN. THE ITEM JUST DOESN'T STRIKE ME AS A GUN OR KNIFE WITH SOMETHING MISSING BUT SOMETHING ASSOCIATED WITH GUNS. A VERY INTERESTING ITEM

I think you're on the right track Barry.

Can we have a look down its gullet?
