Based on your last unkown item... it may be closer to your area of expertise than you may think. Maybe. :P

Not quite, maybe even slightly more off than macrame.

You're all nearly there!

ok, so let me think about it... the rod is made of metal... is it hard metal? can it bring something (screwed in that) thru someting else, maybe thru something hard? And do you screw somehting on it, use the rod to help it go somewhere, then you unscrew it, retrieve the rod and let the other thing in there do its job....? is that logic right?

or

its not for hard stuff and you can make nets or some things like that with it.

You're all super close but since this has been going for a few weeks now and you're all giving roughly the right answer anyway, let me reveal the device :)

The device is a paracord lacing needle (or fid) used when creating paracord bracelets and other crafty things out of paracord:

I'll let Finis create the next unknown topic as he was the closest with 'Macrame'. :bananatyping:

Yes it's a fun hobby. I used to make a ton of bracelets back in Sweden, I hobby I may take up again if I'm really bored in the future haha.

As for your device... Looks like some kind of springloaded camera contraption where a camera (like a go-pro) can be mounted on the platform with the screw, this platform being pushed inwards, then being released by pressing the rear part of the handle... but... why? :lol: So far I actually fail to see the purpose of the device so I'll have to give it some more thoughts.


Edit:
On second thought it could also be a front grip for a shotgun/rifle that turns into a stand by folding the grip up and then splitting the two handle components outwards in a V shape.

Edit Edit:
I'm actually going with my first assumption in that it's a mount for a camera and say that it's actually a tri-pod, where the rear part of the grip splits in two as well, creating a tri-pod for the camera to rest on.
