have you tested if the tip is magnetic? it should come out.

I was going with an eyelet punch as well, Sandy.

Just phoned but they are not at home - he will check if it's magnetic when he gets home and let me know.

another thought.................. does it unscrew at any point?

I'm sticking with some kind of pen/nib.  Why would it have a pocket clip otherwise?

 

 

Is that a clip on it? Some sort of weight to hold a piece of paper perhaps?

It looks like a tyre pressure gauge that the old school mechanics used to have in their top pocket.

tyre pressure guage?

What we see as the "nib area" is the part put on the valve.

 

The other end pushes out to indicate the pressure when it is applied.

 

Like everyone else I'm guessing.
