That wasn't squid, silly. It was octopus. The tool that originally came with the box was for measuring octopi to ensure they were of legal size. Of course, the device can be used for other applications, but you need to multiply by 8...

Here's an old box I have. I believe it was a portable electrical interrogation tool. wink
