ironrosefarms Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 Irnsrgn, your a man after my own heart! I always have my 5wr vise grips on me. I have two sets, one for daily use (back side marred from being used as an impromptu hammer many times) The second set is newer and has been used as a hammer much less, it also has the new added "feature" on the thumb screw of a hex key hole (haven't found a good use for this "feature" yet? It is not uncommon to be sitting in church and someone comes and asks to borrow my vice grips. I used to carry screw drivers but my pockets just didn't hold up... That is why on my key ring is a 4way screw driver and my infamous P38 can opener, between those two I have removed or installed many a screw phillip or standard. When I had my motorcycle wreck the nurse cut my jeans off of me and as she picked up the sliced jeans they fell out of her hand cause she wasn't expecting them to weigh so much. It is a good thing I am limited to pockets and belt loops... if guys used purses I'd have an entire tool bag and probably some emergency rations as well!
