It looks like some sort of extension spring stretcher, possibly for fitting/removing springs to brakes?
Batz
Something to do with taking apart a GM starter??
I would have to go with Batz, A spring stretcher/placer sounds good to me.
It looks quite handy too, the screwdriver handle indicates to me it gets close to the work, like brakes, otherwise it would be a T handle.
Who has not replaced brake springs on 4x4s or trucks and used a screwdriver to lever it on?..............twang!.......now where the hell did that go?

I haven't. I use pliers or Vise Grips. The "twang" and the "now where the hell..." are the same, though.
I concur that it's most likely an automotive tool of some kind, though I can't explain why; just feels right.
Skipskip, is it 2022 or 2202 ?

It's 2022. KD makes specialty tools for the auto repair trade, so I agree it's a car tool.
I like the brake idea, tho maybe more like keeping shoes apart while you do something else .
it's odd that the number doesn't come up on searches.
