    Looks painful!

    Don't know the answer but first guesses were a novelty cigarette lighter or propelling pencil

    It's a lighter missing the wick wand that was where the tail would be, the "slot" is where the flint strip was for striking the wand.

    Edit: I now notice you have the tail!

    "Striker lighter", is yours marked anywhere? Some of the early Ronson ones have a very faint A.M.W. or an L.V. Aronson mark.
