I'm in proving this and actually it is a lever because i was just taking a test that asked this question and it did not give me the option of a wheel and axle but it did give me lever.
Edit~
The first person to answer was, in fact, correct. To the person who last improved the answer: Some people consider it a lever; it is actually a wheel and axle.
A lever is a rigid object that rotates around a fixed point, like a seesaw, while a wheel and axle is two circular or cylindrical objects that are fastened together (The handle and the metal rod) and they rotate around a common axis (the screw)!
