I see now that the small groove that was a puzzle is simply to get to open when in the closed position as on a penknife blade.

I'm sure I saw one on sale in Lidl UK yesterday. It's not in the brochure so I'll look again this afternoon.

Elsie's link says it cleans paint rollers? Dunno, maybe you put the metal wire 7 shape into the "bottle opener" notch to clear off the metal. Otherwise?

Seems like it's a decorators tool so; use the concave part as a squeegee to scrape excess paint off the roller & back into the tin before washing it off.
I've always used a flat scraper to do this.
