Opened penknife or pocket tool gear.
Of course for better legibility you should simplify it.
However it might be too much detailed for something
you want to place into a tab.

If it is for tabs, I would use icon symbolizing cluster of all things, either something more relaxed or less relaxed , depending on overall app style.

Also the target audience is important for the decision, because some audiences may already have their 'all' symbol. For example for advanced computer users, 'all' can be expresed by asterisk (wildcard *).

After the quick discussion, I have used before a simple icon of an eye. It's simple but sometimes can be a bit cartoony. Other ways I experimented with is to have the other icons overlaid on each other in your one icon, so it shows "all tabs." You ocould also have some sort of columned icon, like a 3 row/column table, but might not be as effective.

Hope some of that helps :)
