That looks more like a tool to remove warts
A plug cutter to remove the pituitary gland from the head of a sacrificial carp. The gland is processed and injected into another fish. The increase in gonadotropins will induce spawning. These days, most people just buy the processed carp pituitary or use an alternative hormone.
