What Is It? Game 136

Time sure flies when you're having fun (or if you have 3 kids like me). Would you believe it?! It's time for our weekly collaboration with the always-awesome What Is It? Blog.

Can you guess what the gruesome tool above is used for? The first correct guess and the funniest albeit wrong guess will win T-Shirts from the NeatoShop.

Write your guess in the comment section. One guess per comment, please, though you can enter as many as you'd like. Write no URL or web link - doing so will invalidate your entry. You have until the answer is revealed at the What Is It? Blog.

IMPORTANT: Please write your selection of T-shirt alongside your guess. Be sure to visit the Science T-Shirt and Funny T-Shirt sections of the NeatoShop.

For more clues, check out the What Is It? Blog. Good luck!

Update 4/30/10 - the answer is: A steak tenderizer and cleaver. Congratulations to Jerry Kelly who got it right first and to das who made me chuckle with the Chinese multi-purpose shovel reference.
