My first thought would be a tool to help pry a crown race from a fork

For square taper cranks that are extra sticky. May cause additional damage – use with caution.

That’s a pickle fork. It’s actually used to separate ball joints on cars, not sure if there is any use for bikes.

That’s a “pickle fork”. It’s for separating the ball joints in the control arm of a car from the steering knuckle. You shove it in there and whack the end with the heaviest hammer you can weild one-handed until the joint pops free.
I can’t imagine a good use for around a bicycle. Bicycle repair usually calls for far less violence.
