Is this a military vehicle tool kit item

[MIKES]

Just wondering if anyone recognises this as a military vehicle tool. It's about 9" overall length. There are no visible markings on it. I found it in part of a tidy-up of a lot of old tools but don't want to throw it if it is of interest.

Thanks.

I have looked through the Vocabulary of Army Ordnance Stores. Section F1 Hand Tools. 1944.

It is fully illustrated but I'm afraid I can find nothing that resembles that interesting device.

Would you have a digital copy of that vocab Clive?

Afraid not Adrian it is quite a fat book, but if there are any particular tools of interest I can scan those pages.

Your tool looks a bit heavier than I'd expect, but I've seen similar tools for system scaffolding, hammer and pry bar combined in one tool.

Thank you for looking. Never heard of this reference but sounds like it's quite a task just to look through.

This VAOS volume is quite big but only covers these Sections:

E3 Lifting & transporting gear
F1 Hand tools
G1 Ironmongery
J1 Camp equipment

G1 is quite small I have its modern equivalent Catalogue of Army Ordnance Stores Section G1 and that now runs to three ring binders.

It looks a bit like an anvil staking tool ?

Thanks for all of the replies. Think the conclusion is that it's not ex military.
