What is this?
Any ideas? Seems like a culinary cutting tool. Or maybe a letter opener?

does it spark when you squeeze the handle- if so sparker for an acetylene torch?

I want to say it is a serving piece because of the bevel on flat part. It looks like something you would use to "lift" some sort of sticky food item then squeeze the arm to help move it off on to a plate. The "serving" surface does seem small though.
Edit: I've been baking/cooking so I'm rather food focused at the moment - probably totally off base.

No sparks, very smooth action. Made of very lightweight metal.

Cooks has a section in the magazine where people send in pictures of odd utensils etc. they've found for identification - if you are really interested you could try that.

Reddit has a "what is this thing" thread. Lots of traffic...

Looks like something for serving fish like smoked salmon?

I presume it's hinged at the top (just off the bottom left corner of the pic), but is there a spring to keep it open?
Edit: nevermind, just saw Reddit won. They're quick.

That seems like it would be harder to use than two spoons...maybe its for a one armed person though.
Damn shame, throwing away a perfectly good white boy like that

Yeah, there is no way I would have figured out what it was. I'm going to give it to a good friend who loves making cookies and see if he ever uses it. At least it will get used once.
