A buddy of mine found it at a flea market. It looked interesting, but he wants to figure out what the hell it is. What say ye, NC4x4?

Looks line a trilinear pecker checker?
 
Given the style of handle, it looks like maybe a pry tool (for something like hubcaps for example, or to part the two halves of a mold) or for something with a big slotted quarter-turn latch like an electrical panel. The way the handle would be grabbed, it's going to be something for twisting or prying with a relatively small range of wrist rotation (not multi-turn like a screwdriver). Looks like a T-handle with a curve to put your thumb on.

That's the new hipster hammer, doesn't work as a hammer, screwdriver, or a prybar! Watch out you'll be drinking PBR and buying peoples worn out jeans, so they think you work!

Vintage tools are hipster gold. You don't have to use them, but they have sooo much style.
