Seen one of these before?

I've had this keychain for quite a few years. It looks like it would have been a GM advertising item, and have always wondered when it may have been handed out. Anybody have one, or have any ideas?

Can't tell you anything on the Chevy one I have two or three of them that say Sears on them. I know I got one of them when I bought a new Marlin .22 Lever Action Rifle at the Sears store in Davenport, Iowa in 1966.

Nope, can't use them for a screw driver. It's against the law. I read that somewhere...

I have one that is from Ruger, (IIRC) Maybe Winchester. Looks just like that one, though, except for the logo.

How about this one? It probably 40 or 50 years older than my Burb!
My guess is it's for clipping the end off of your cigar. But, that's just a guess.
Or, opened up, you could shave with it. Ouch!

Re: Seen one of these before?

I am guessing it a feeler gage for setting the gap on plugs and points. S

Nice spark plug tool. Here's an AC one. Check the gap (only up to 44 thou) and adjust the plug with the notches in the "C".
