when I acquired this tool recently I thought I was buying an engraving tool, but after researching it a little further, this CORBIN tool might actually be used to put grooves into bullets? which is somewhat like engraving I guess..does anybody know for sure what the name of this tool is and it's purpose?

The Corbin cannelure tool is a crank driven roller affair.

It looks like the shank was squared to put a wrench on it (bad practice).
High grade screwdrivers like yours with ebony handles were included in fine cased shotgun sets.

could it be possible if this Corbin screwdriver could be a specialty screwdriver then, used for locksmith work? maybe squared shanks insert thru certain antique locksets? I think I recall seeing square access "holes" on old antique locksets?..this "item" has definitely NOT been altered
