Its laying on my wifes arm in the pic, to give size reference. Its made of aluminum, and has a rubber handle. Says its made in Canada. The groove on the side does not go all the way through.
Any idea? I cant figure it out.

Based upon my vast knowledge of Canadian culture, I suspect that it has something to do with either tattoos or cigarettes.

Anything can open a beer can if you put your mind to it.

With the soil I have in my yard, it looks about right. The flimsy stamped metal yard tools from Wal-mart are worthless against this stuff.

Looked like spare parts from the new X-Men: Wolverine movie to me (good movie by the way, friend gave me the workprint that made it into the wild).

That my friend is a Dibble. As referenced above it is used for planting bulbs in freshly tilled earth. Just stick it in the ground and then shove a bulb in. Makes the wife happy come spring time. (no not that way, get your mind out of the gutter) I have a friend with a rather impressive Dibble collection Mostly aniques. He gets them where ever he goes and recives them at Christmass and his birthday... His last name is
Dibble.
