I think this is really too easy though.

Ya, I knew it was too easy.

I guess I could try to use it to open a can of sardines.

But Gear had it nailed.  It's a simply a cut and bent piece of welding rod for ink mixing. 

I refuse to go through the cleanup required from one of the $3 paint stirrers.  Yes, they are cheap enough, but ink gets into all the nooks and crannies making it almost impossible to move from color to color.

I tried using a bent coat hanger and although it worked pretty well, a quart of Maxopake that had sat for a couple of years did take it's toll, but did stir. 

So I stopped by the welding supply and got a couple of uncoated rods ($1 each) I can quickly cut and bend to the diamond shape you see.  It's easy to wipe clean for reuse, or run through the dryer and dispose.  I figure I can get about 4 (for quarts) per rod.

Nawh,  I saw it on a TV show tonight. Body of Evidence. This serial killer guy used that to pull people's brains out through the nose like the egyptians did in the mummification process.
