Yea, its not that, too thick/square, handle too small, etc. You'd never get a plug in with it (I've done thousands of them - tire's are really tough).
Looks like some kind of levering tool.
As an aside, check out the screw-type tire plugs available today. Way easier than the traditional plugs and work just as well.
