Does anyone know what this tool was used for? It measures approximately 6 inches long and has only one cutting edge. The bottom jaw has a groove which the blade rests in when not in use. I tried using it, but with only one sharp edge, it doesn't seem capable of cutting anything.
It looks like a very plain betel nut cutter. Could well be something else.
Thank You! I googled betel nut cutter and found one just like it. Compared to others, it is very plain indeed. I am wondering if the handles were once wrapped in rattan like many asian scissors.
