DescriptionThis object is an elongated stainless steel instrument handle with two attachment sockets on both ends. A hollow, cylindrical socket with a funnel-shaped head is located at the tip of the object, while a short, hollow tube protrudes from the back. The handle is wider than the sockets, and has wide, vertical serrations on opposite ends. There is very little to no corrosion visible.
