I found this in the cabinet above the refrigerator or my new home.

Anyone know what it is?

I'm no expert, but I wonder if it could be a garage door spring.

It’s a spring nail set used by carpenters and cabinet installers.

Also works great for removing door hinge pins...needs no hammer.

And also as a center punch prior to drilling.

Hard to tell how big it is but looks like it Might be a nail punch with a spring on the end for a better grip.

Never seen one before….but wish I had (now that I know what it is).

It's a car antenna!

As others have stated, it's a spring-loaded center punch.
The cabinet installer is probably still looking for it.

It's commonly called a center punch. Used for marking locations for nails or screws.
