But what is it?


Obviously it was born as a cricket but got worn out and was repurposed as kitchen gizmo.
So it has to used to hit things and assume it is some food that needs beating not the husband however useful it looks for that.
First thought was meat but there there are special hammers for that.
What vegetables require beating. I have never tried turnip but I am covinced they need batter
It's for thwacking people who won't stop bothering you when you're trying to cook.
I agree, I'm surprised more kitchens don't have one.
Making butter maybe. In the old days a girl could find a husband if she was accomplished at churning butter, girls and wives could socialise churning butter together
All I saw was the preparation for milkshakes ππ₯ π₯€ vanilla thanks π
@Rsk4330 we used to churn butter the old way on the farm. Let's just say it translated very well in my dating life.
A peeler of some sort? Other than that, it could easily be confused with a spanking paddle, which is bad.
Hows a spanking paddle bad? π Table tennis /, ping pong anyone? Lol
@NicholasRedone You can't tell me it doesn't look like one.
They usually look rounded round and small like this emoji. π
So smooth πππ» π not that I'd know lol π

yikes... I just hope it is not used to whack something, then cook it...
Oh thats simple. Its the kitchen tool that makes sure your son will do the dishes when you tell him to do them
It looks like a fraternity paddle and/or a device used for doing laundry in ancient times.
Definitely don't need one, I don't like fish.
Maybe an edge polisher or vegetable skin peeler.
My mom had one of those. She used it for whacking us when we misbehaved.
I have seen one of these. I do not know what it is used for
The grooves cut into it make me wonder if it's some kind of juicer
Never seen this. So I make a guess... getting scales off a fish?
Thanks for the update.
No ''cheating'' from my side... I just had a feeling.
Looks like what my mother used on me when I was being a little shit. A Gen X attitude corrector.
Poor man's paddle 🏓 table tennis anyone? Kitchen or dining lol 😆😀
I'll take away thanks lol ποΈ π
I love my humour. Fast food jokes, sports jokes. Ciao lol
You pour curds through there to get string cheese, right?
Nope
Probably in the old days. It was used in the UK as sandpaper at one time
It's used to take scales off fish and to filet them
Grinding out pancakes itβs for that roll them out
Descaling and filleting fish, the clip on the handle holds the tail
It looks like the Board of Education
@purplepoppy
I remember it well, ouch
Looks like that butter masher thing.
Looks like a cricket bat
No idea Poppy. You make me curious ;0)
it's a fish fillet board.
Isn't it an old cheese grater?
Looks like a paddle when someone gets out of line.
Itβs a twat swatter
Butter shaper
Spanking.
@SleepingHazard
Yup
Fish board
spankings!
