Went to Marrakech in Morocco last Thursday and went through the souks.
Anyone who's been through the souks of Morocco knows what its like to have the market stall holders pestering you.
Anyway I was shoved in my hand this.
Its got ten wooden handles which are nicely carved and painted which from each handle is a thin twisted metal bar about 12 inches long which all fit in to a wooden cork type thing at the bottom.
Its the best I can explain them.
Anyone any idea's.:confused:
Have you got it upside down?

Are they pointed on the end ?
I think the cork is just to stop you stabbing yourself with them.
I think it is a Dibler Valve :suspect: .
Self sealing Stem Bolts? ;)
Seriously, I'd go with the skewers - kebab skewers, as has been suggested? Morrocan cuisine does include kebab style cooking, so I'd go with that.
