This could be a small tool, about the size of a nasal hair trimmer, or an attachment to a multi-purpose tool such as a Dremel. It has a set of rotating diamond-tipped knurling wheels and its function is to add knurls to anything. Does your toothbrush feel insufficiently machine-tooled? Can you not get
enough gription on your lunchtime burrito? Super-sleek new smartphone keeps slipping out of your hand? - just add some knurls.
You mean this?

It might be a bit bigger than a nose hair trimmer, but... [MechE, Sep 23 2015]

I'm sure embossed det-cord would do the job. |

Hand held and operated knurling rollers exist. See link for
one example. |

You just know that the kids will start calling everything totally knurly. |

That had no feeling whatsoeveratall... and that link looks suspiciously like a pipe-cutter... and 'that' man's playing Galaga.
You thought I wouldn't notice... |

Except for the fact it has grooved wheels instead of a blade,
it is a pipe cutter. It's got the same basic function, roll
around a round surface and press into it really hard. |

I think it's a good job the knurler MechE links to has a knurled handle. Else you'd be snookered. |
