As most everyone else noted, looks cool but I'll pass.

If you are too weak to hold a steel wrench I don't think you are going to get the nut loose regardless of the wrench material

This is true!

Me too. If only I could remember what I did with it. . .
It was a double ended box wrench. Nice forging, with raised lettering forged in and what looked like 12 point broached ends.

Yes, I'm sure the non-sparking was a big plus too. Even in a helium filled craft, you could still have huge chambers filled with "blaugas" fuel.

Well, I was digging through some boxes in the attic just now, and happened across it by surprise. So, here's a follow up to a 2 year old dead thread, since you asked to see it. This thing feels too light to even be plastic, but the forging on this is simply beautiful.

They're cute, but I, too, will pass
