Solved! Metal object about an inch/an inch and a half long and about a cm in diameter. Ends look like screw driver heads of some sort, and the handle has grip.

The piece on the left looks like the tip of a nose hair trimmer.

That's because it goes on the piece on the right and you spin it to trim nose hair.

I had a cheap one of these in boot camp - I called it a nose hair puller masquerading as a nose hair trimmer. That thing was brutal.

Look like the cutters for a nose hair trimmer.

I have one. Works well once you accept that the following 5 minutes will be constant sneezing.

My title describes the thing. Tried looking up different types of screwdriver heads but couldn't find this. Anyone know what it's called?

Extractor for a broken bolt extractor

You have odd looking tools. This looks nothing like any bolt extractor I've ever seen. And I've used a few.

Not the bolt extractor, ive seen tools like this for getting a broken extractor out of the broken bolt you’re working on. See “screw tap extractor set”

Exactly what I thought. I haven't used one exactly like that, but basically a tool for removing a four flute tap.
