That's feasible. When my son was a teenager he had some pocket knives. There's no reason why I would have a tool for dismantling street furniture or injectors.Tool for adjusting some weird knife

Well I've got an up-and-over garage door but I've never looked to see if it has a tensioning adjustment. It's possible that the tool was left at the house when the door was installed during the house build. I'll have to have a close look at the springs on the sides of the door sometime to see if there's a 3 hole adjuster somewhere.Just guessing, could it be for tensioning a coil spring, e.g for an up-and-over garage door mechanism?
I'm the only one who played stringed instruments. I've got a couple of electric guitars in the loft, but I don't think it's for them, they have the usual tuning keys on the heads.I have seen stringed instrument tension tuning keys similar to that image.
Any previous musicians in your family.?
We've never owned a treadmill. I don't really want to have to go up in the loft just now to get it out for a photo. There wouldn't be much more to see than what I described already (three metal pins spaced equally at 120 deg and one plastic pin in the middle). I'm pretty sure the plastic pin doesn't retract, it looks like it's part of the same moulding as the rest of the plastic. I checked the metal pins and they don't retract.I had a "professional" treadmill that used a similar key to adjust the mat tension.
Could you post a photo of the working end of the tool? Also, does the plastic pin in the center retract when pressed (spring loaded) or is it solidly positioned?
That seemed a bit lazy of me given the effort others have put in to helping me. So I went up in the loft and took a photo.I don't really want to have to go up in the loft just now to get it out for a photo.

No. Would it be for winding one up?Have you ever owned a Renault?
Since living here I've had an Opel Manta, various Fords, and a couple of Honda Preludes. It may well have been a car tool, not that I remember, just that I don't love cars / do any maintenance on them so I wouldn't have taken care of it like I do with bike toolsWell, I am about 90% certain that is a wrench for an anti-theft bolt on a car rim, How about Toyota? There are several manufacturers that seem to source their wrenches/bolts from the same company,
That looks like an exact match. Well done! Is that for the anti-theft bolt?How‘s this?
Yes, it seems to be a commonly used format but we use different sorts of wrenches in the US. Do you have a car with alloy wheels?That looks like an exact match. Well done! Is that for the anti-theft bolt?
Yes, but it's been around many years more than I've had my current car for. I think most of my cars that I've had during the 35 years I've lived in this house have had alloy wheels.Yes, it seems to be a commonly used format but we use different sorts of wrenches in the US. Do you have a car with alloy wheels?
