    A mysterious vintage tool.

    Mystery K&T hand tool

    This looks like a brad pusher but I'm looking for confirmation. There are no adjustments. The center shaft is spring loaded. When the top is left pushed (the red "button") the Jaws open. In the photo where the jaws are open the center shaft is fully extended so??? Thanks Sent from my Pixel 2...
