    Default Dubl Duck tweezers with a .... ?

    So in collecting Dubl Duck stuff I got these tweezers. I didn't notice until I got them the little detail on the end. WHAT the heck is it for ?

    Try blackhead or pimple squeezer/presser.

    That is what it was commonly used for, but it was also used to press "bee stingers & other embedded objects to the top, so the tweezers could extract them.

    The hole is supposed to be use remove splinters. Press it down over the splinter to bring it to the surface and then drag backwards to pull it out.

    I have thought of all these uses.
    I guess I'll have to try the splinter thing next time I get 1 , at home, and don't have my pocket knife with me :<0)

    Lining that thing up on a black head might be a challenge. Fence pliers is easier.
    The white stuff? I know nothing of such things. Okay I knew a guy that knew a guy but...

    Except for the hole, it resembles a cerumen (ear wax) spoon that would have been used for cleaning ears. That hole doesn't look original to me.

    Here's a photo of another tweezer/ear wax spoon combo for comparison:

    When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It's difficult only for the others.
    It's the same when you are stupid.
