CharlieZulu Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Obviously a keychain thingie, but what does the business end of this do??? Click this Quote
+webscouter. Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 My guess is that it latches on to a keychain or around a hanger or something. Quote
+Maingray Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Looks like some kind of fancy schmancy carabiner / climbing clasp. Quote
CharlieZulu Posted November 18, 2005 Author Posted November 18, 2005 You can't "push"it onto anything... you must squeeze the little side pieces to open it up. And the moving parts are flat, not sharp, so ix-nay on the cigar cutter... anyway, the open diameter is only about 1 cm. Chris Quote
mud-dog27 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 looks like a heavy duty backpackers keychain.....looks familiar.......ive seen them before Quote
+Chillibusher Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 As long as you can pry a cap off a beer bottle with it, it has to be useful....right? Quote
+Catapult Jeff and Iron Maiden Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 From what I can find Tuff makes gym equipment so..... I will go with the beer bottle opener. Quote
danoshimano Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 You clip it on a cable, and then holding onto your keys, you can slide across to the other side of a canyon/chasm/raging river and the like. Very useful. Quote
+BlueDeuce Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Cheap, convince store quality cigar cutter. That's my vote. Quote
+Chillibusher Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 (edited) Found them online here I still think you could open a bottle with one! Edited November 18, 2005 by Chillibusher Quote
CharlieZulu Posted November 18, 2005 Author Posted November 18, 2005 There we go! It'sa a dual jaw belt clip!! Won't work on any of my belts... maybe you clip it onto the belt loop ?? In any case, I was never big on the Janitor/Caretaker look thing.... Quote
+Apples 2 Apples Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 Obviously a keychain thingie, but what does the business end of this do??? Click this We have a number of these we have been distributing into caches for a while. We got them at a buck or two type dollar store some time ago. They are indeed just a fancy smancy carbiner.

+darus67 Posted November 18, 2005 Posted November 18, 2005 You clip it on a cable, and then holding onto your keys, you can slide across to the other side of a canyon/chasm/raging river and the like. Very useful. And if you're lucky (or have the writers on your side), the friction from sliding on the cable doesn't wear through it, dropping you from the cable, before you get to the other side.

Having held these in my hand and seen the construction behind them... I don't think friction would be the issue. I don't think they would hold the average human being aloft on anything for more than two seconds. If the jaws didn't give way, the keychain link would for sure. Quote

I think I would prefer to have the roadrunner and coyote writers on this project. There is something to be said for the satisfying thud of him hitting the canyon floor. Quote
+canadazuuk Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Obviously a fancy belt clip I thought as I started reading the thread... which was right. But I vote for Stallone. :-) Quote
+parker2 Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 I have no idea..... but I want one now. lol Quote
Curious George Posted November 20, 2005 Posted November 20, 2005 Still slightly on topic and speaking of the movie Cliffhanger.....rent it some time and watch in....also rent and watch Extreme Limits. Pay special attention to the plane sequence....this is what happens when a director runs out of money part way through a movie, LOL Quote
+Couparangus Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Still slightly on topic and speaking of the movie Cliffhanger.....rent it some time and watch in....also rent and watch Extreme Limits. As for Stallone, here are my favourite quotes from various movies, guaranteed to get laughs at parties. Be sure to YELL these out of the side of your mouth for full effect: ADRIENNE!!! ADRIENNE!!! THROW ME THE ROPE!!! I'M COMIN' FOR YA!!! YOU STOP THIS FIGHT AND I'LL KILL YOU!!! I think Jackass the Movie is the ultimate in reality viewing of dangerous behaviour. CA Quote

Our favourite quote from a Stallone movie: Rambo, showing his blue light, "Blue light." Other guy, "What does it do?" Rambo, "Turns blue." Quote
