Alright...not sure the difficultly of this one...be specific. I'll give a hint after like 5 or 10 wrong guesses (dumb guesses don't count i.e. "lamp")

Looks like some kind of optics... eyepiece for a microscope?

you're warm, but not close

lipstick DVR camera, though a little larger than a standard lipstick tube.

  (nope)

telescope optic eye piece.

 
Right on the money. Your turn!

gee, I never thought I'd win one of these.  give me a chance to find something tonight and take a pic of it and I'll post up later.

thats how i felt...my reign was short lived...the power felt great 

LOL, not sure I'll get drunk on the power with this one.

To guess correctly you have to name the item as you would find it in a catalog.  I have blanked out the brand of this one with the green tape just to keep it interesting.

Wire stripper?

It almost looks like some sort of snap ring pliars,

the jaws open instead of compress, the handle locks and so on.

The way its slotted it looks like it might have some sort of cable run through the lower jaw and connect to the upper jar and work kinda like a puller or maybe a throttle (diagnostically)

I am going to say cable pliers...

very very close, 3 words in the description, bonus points if you can name exactly what it is used for.  it has two separate but related jobs in its application of use.
