And no, I don't know, and I haven't found anyone who does.

Something that requires evenly spaced threads; making crochet-lace
gloves ?

I'm sure I will get put down on this, but it is very similar to a device
that is placed into a pan, with water, items are then placed on top to
keep them out of the water so that they steam nicely.

The only exception I can think of is the potato-sharpener with the
rocking blade - which is lovely, and only takes off a very thin slice -
except that I only rarely sharpen potatoes.

I have one which probably dates back to when we were first married
(1959), and is still serviceable and sharp. I tried numerous ones
which appeared to be the same design, but just didn't work, - blade to
stiff to swivel, or cutting edges not subtly aligned. I was
terrified that it would be lost or stop working properly!

Then a few months ago I found that Morrisons were selling a range of
black handled implements which included one which worked just as well if
not better. I still keep the old one just in case . . .

It's brass, so getting pickled eggs, On!ons, etc out of the jar is a
non-starter too.

taking boiled eggs out of egg-boiling water?

Why can't you just put the thing in without a tool?

It would put one of those Pyrex discs in a milk saucpan - the ones which
dance about on the bottom and deflate the bubbles, preventing (or
inhibiting) the milk from boiling over.

Even so, if you forget to put one of those in when the milk is cold, you
can always put it in sideways on and let the thing go - gently.

Way too many of them as well. Overkill.

You can always buy packets of dehydrated vacuum

It's not very good, though. Frozen is much better.

Yes, but you can keep the dehydrated stuff in the cupboard. UHT isn't
bad though.

UHT? Well, I suppose it's OK for cooking, but ...
