>I've already posted this in Hand Tools but I thought I'd give you guys a shot at it also.
Does anyone know what this tool is? My Dad just gave me his hand tools and this was in a box of rasps and files. Dad says he no longer knows what it did. I don't believe he ever used it but maybe his dad did.
Thanks.
Sure, it is a rifle barrel bedding tool *LINK*

>I used them to bed (fit) the barrel of a rifle into a wooden stock when I was gunsmithing. They work quite well for forming and smoothing a channel in wood. See the link.
