Monday Mystery, another plier-type thing



  Looks like die cast metal of some type, no sharp or grippy edges... possibly some opening or spreading feature in front to the pivot. No idea... 
But I know someone will know exactly what it is- within, I'd say... 15 minutes.

Solved.. Schriver Malleable Iron IXL Chain Pliers for removing links from light duty chain, such as on pumps and lamps. Thanks guys in the comments...
Patent at Datamp.
