Identify this Thompson Center Product
I got this in a lot of muzzle loading items at an auction. It is marked on one side with T/C. I think it is a tool. Please help with what it is and current value. Thanks in advance for any input.

We're supposed to be able to post pictures, but some folks have tried and said it didn't work. Just one more thing that don't work around here I guess.

It's a wedge puller. The fork like leg is hooked under the end of the barrel wedge. Liken it to using a claw hammer to pull a nail. Of the two other ends the flat end is used to drive the wedge back in while the other appears to be a nipple wrench.. Haven't had one in hand in ages, and don't recall exactly what it looks like so I'm not certain on that last.

asphalt cowboy got it.
T/C sold that as a combo tool (3 tools in one) for their BP rifles when they were making the Hawken and Renegades.
The Hammer side starts the barrel wedge out then the claw removed the wedge, hammer is used to re-install the brass wedge
The side with the slot is for removing and installing a #11 nipple.
No longer made.
I have some of the T/C BP rifles that had the lifetime T/C warranty.
Smith and Wesson messed that up plus other things. S&W sucks big air.
