I've never seen one before, but it's definitely some kind of shear. A guillotine for steel?

I think they used those for torture in the middle ages.

That tray is there for a reason. Catching fingers?

I think it the circumcision device they used on my ancestors

It's a cigar cutter. They've since miniaturized them.

That's in pretty good shape! Wish I still had mine, let it go waaaay too cheap, had wheels and everything. Prett hard on the back, so we had to take turns.   Any idea how much to ship to Ontario, Canada, disassembled of course.  Thanx,...Lloyd
