Hi I'm really new to knife collecting and this is my first post. Please pardon the noob question.

Purchased a vintage Okapi multi tool pocket knife at a flea mart, and I need some help identifying what a certain tool is used for. After some digging, I reckon this is a sailor's knife? With the awl and all. My question is, what is this tool used for? This one in the upper right corner with a little wheel.

Any and all help appreciated!
 
It looks like a glass cutter, the wheel scores the glass and the notch in the side is used to grab the edge of the pane and snap it at the scored line.
