The flare on the end of the chisel locks it onto the rubber piece quite solidly, so I think it actually is meant to be there.

It's made by some company I'd never heard of by the name of "Hu-Friedy" -- further research certainly lends validity to the claim that this object is what it was claimed to be. That company's website is full of the most torturous devices I've ever seen. Feel free to poke around; I only got about three items in before I started cringing at what I was finding.

And not even where it can protect the edge? Also, according to her, that's not particularly creepy, apparently some of the things used for poking into the brain, those are creepy..

As far as I remember it was a bonesaw, but I can't be bothered to go trawling through the archives looking for it. I’m fairly sure that comic was Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.
