Have you seen the price!
My town has a flea market once a week, I have a weakness for looking around and buying old tools, whet stones, cold chisels and anything else. I took a taxi there and found that the driver was just as big a tool nut as I am, he brought many tools from Pakistan and it makes him happy to always have the tool in his cupboard when he or a friend needs a tool for that difficult job.

He was particularly happy with this new Metmo adjustable spanner, actually a multi purpose tool, damn good looking too.View attachment 125408
Very nice, but I think my various monkey wrenches, upwards of 60 years old, probably fulfil my needs.

Have you seen the price of their pens? They make the wrench look a bargain.

I hadn't seen their pens, must admit that I don't have a clue what a dual thread pen might be or how it would bring sparkle to this dimly lit life, I must admit that I have spent more on a pen than the ticket price of £139 for the Metmo

Two copper hammers, same model and the same maker but twenty years apart, just showing a handsome amount of wear.

I suspect that all of you will know why soft copper should be used in a hammer, but just in case, it is for those situations where a spark from a steel hammer could cause an explosion.
