Man I just get the wrong mental image whenever somebody mentions that tool brand.

 

[kunkernator]

I wonder where the name came from?

 

[cryan]

It was the name of the founders pet bull dog. hence why the brand logo is a bulldog.

I just found this in a scrap tub at work. It got a lot of funny comments from the guys at work. Now I want to collect the whole set. Looks to be a pretty decent quality tool.

It's an old and respected English manufacturer. My Whitworth sockets are by King ****.

Junior high is sure fun, isn't it, op?

 

[Gmonkee]

Now the current run is King Tony. I run into those often. Damn nice tools to use.

I'm not sure if this is some kind of joke or not.

King **** tools are alive and well.... and very high quality.

Looks like it fits good in the hand. Well balanced, nice heft.

The market here in Mexico has newer King Tony. Pure Euro design and darn nice tools. Some are more German style and a few are more British. Similarity is striking at least.

It may be a S. American manufacturer but I sure like them. (Argentina is COO on one.)

If related only by licence or relative similarity I apologise.

I surmise he made a graduate of himself around June.

King **** tools were often found in the kits provide by British car manufactures like MG, Austin-Healey, etc.

Wouldn't be funny if they named the tools "King Richard"

We use the word **** the same way Americans do sometimes.

In the North of England we tend to use the word KNOB/KNOB-HEAD or BELL END.

**** isn,t really that offensive a word in England anymore, so we dont find it as hilarious as they do.

FANNY and BUM mean completely different things in England and we will laugh if we hear an American use them out of context in a movie or TV

 

[Plombob]

I have a few of their tools. They are well made.

 

[Plombob]

FANNY and BUM mean completely different things in England and we will laugh if we hear an American use them out of context in a movie or TV

So... what do they mean in a merry old England?

 

[wornoutoldman]

I trained at the Range Rover factory in 92/93 the provided tools were King ****.

Well quite literally Fanny here is slang for ******

and Bum is ones Backside or Bottom


It cracked me up the first time I heard the phrase "Fanny Pack"

I always think of it as more of a hobby than a bag you wear...

 

[senlow]

"And you, do you find it amusing when I mention the name of my fwend.. Biggus Dickus.."

He has a wife, you know. You know what she's called? She's called... 'Incontinentia'... Incontinentia Buttocks ...

I will never look at a fanny pack the same........

 

[silentpoet]

In Conway, Arkansas there used to be a dealership named **** Longing. I think it was a Ford place.

I almost woke somebody up when I saw those ads on the first page.

 

[rick carpenter]

Now what was one of Cleavon Little's lines in Blazing Saddles? Something like "Excuse me while I..."

 

[superautobacs]

**** Kuken?

 

[ganymede]

Lol.
That scene cracks me up every time .

Hey, another rainy covid day here. I've got a 7" King **** adjustable (shifter) wrench and trying to find manufacturing date. Any help?

 

[mr.lemons]

King **** are still in business so it may be worth emailing them with a pic.
