A super old pipe cutter maybe

I have thought about that, but the inside of the chain does not have any projections or rollers to do any cutting. I think it is some sort of chain wrench. It is marked Truax&Co. Like I said, haven't ever been able to find anything like it anywhere. If anyone knows for sure, I would love to know. Your turn.

Did some more research tonight, and it is not a wrench. It in an "Ecraseur Amputation Tool" Totally cool and not what I thought it was at all. Ouch



Medical Definition of écraseur
: a surgical instrument containing a chain or wire loop that is used to encircle and sever a projecting mass of tissue (as the testicles of a horse or a pedicled tumor) by gradual tightening of the chain or loop

Gradual tightening? Holy shit and testicles all in the same definition

While we're waiting on the other one to be named, thought I'd throw this one into the mix. Chances are that you will only know what it is if you have actually used it.
