Weird spanner/multi-tool

[Kscardsfan]

Found this in a pile of hammers, files, and hacksaw blades at our shop at work. I’m guessing something for plumbing or gas lines from the cut outs in the handle and the screwdriver tip on top of the spanner portion. But anyones guess is good here. The LCN logo/mark is a bit of a mystery as well.

Gas bottle wrench. Spanner gets the cap off. the squares and hexes turn valves.

LCN - maker of door closers…. My guess is a tool used to adjust them…..

Just guessing, based on what I’m seeing while googling, I’d go with door closer wrench before bicycle wrench. Seen enough of these up close to guess that way.

Thanks RTM.

There are a lot of "L's" in this list but I don't see any "LCN".

It might well pass as a "bicycle wrench" to the unknowing. There are all kinds of old Maytag wrenches listed on ebay as "bicycle wrenches" - I think it's kind of a catch-all dumping ground for items the sellers aren't quite sure about.

What’s most impressive about this is the incredible lack of door closers on any of the buildings in our facility.
