What is this??

Just wondering in anyone here knows what this call is? It was my grandfather duck call and I know nothing about it. It has no markings anywhere on the call, so I have no idea who made it. Looks like it has a metal reed, but that is all I know. Any help identifying it would be greatly appreciated.

That's no duck call, its a V.I.D., vaginal inspection device. Grandpa was a freak.

So you are saying I should not have put my lips on it while trying a few calls through it, guess I should have posted pictures first. Thanks for the heads up JR! :lol:

Its called a tongue pincher.

Elam Fisher, of the Detroit area, is credited for the patent of the first duck call in the year 1870. Unlike any call you see today this classic was referred to as a "Tongue Pincher". These calls were made from two pieces of curved wood facing each other, a reed made of metal sandwiched between them and a holding device to keep all the parts together. The call was placed into the mouth and blown into. This is where the name came from. The metal reed would often pinch or cut the tongue and mouth because it was unprotected. These early calls are not known for their sound/tone quality. Tone range was very limited. The sounds were best suited for those produced by diving ducks and could not produce the sounds associated with Mallards. In addition call volume was also limited.

Very cool find. It is definitely one that I want to get and try and call ducks with. I have a friend whose dad has about a dozen of them in his collection.

Are they worth anything? Or just kind of cool to have?

I don't really know a whole lot about them.
