Until one Redditor commented, no other users were able to identify the object. It was a nail buffer.

2- Torment instrument?

A Redditor shared a scissor like object, but quite differently it is circled and the interior is filled with spikes. It turned out to be a household item of the past.

I found this under the floor boards in a 1800’s era house.
