    It was fun working with Sparrows on the Chaos Card II. As you said, it’s a companion to the first one, offering complimentary tools to the first one and I can confirm that saw really can cut!

    It is called a Traveler's hook because it is used in weaving to hook a "traveler" which moves one of the threads back and forth.

    Affordable insurance that gives some peace of mind. I totally agree with what Bill said. Plus, it might put a slightly mischievous grin on my face, knowing my pocket prestidigitation packet could provide some welcome magic in a time of need.

    I use my travellers hook for door bypass, o-ring remover, food stuck in teeth, scraping wood glue out of corners after it sets, grabbing filters out of AC units. They are just all around handy to have.

    Traveler Hook (also known as a Shrum Tool) as supplied by the Carolina Roller Company is in my pocket right now.
    It is the perfect entry tool for doors without proper fitment. If the dead-latch plunger isn't held back, either that or the 'hall pass' gets you in faster than a key.

    There are dozens of different hidden handcuff keys available. My personal favorite is a hard plastic one(to.pass metal detectors) that has a notch so it also works with the split pawl handcuffs, and can be hidden inside a zippers pull. I also like the ones that are sewn to your sleeve and used as a shirt cuff button.

    for some reason the travelers hook reminds me of latchhooking. it’s like paint by numbers with lengths of yarn.
    but anyway, i’m getting more worried handcuff keys like that are gonna need to be EDC for regular people sooner than later..

    Don't waste your money on travelers hook. You can buy the exact style tool from harbor freight for $.99 plus it comes with 3 other profiles and has lifetime warranty. And you can find the same set of what are referred to as picks that are long by other manufacturers for less than sparrows price and you'll get other profiles

    I have one of the handcuff coins and one concern I have is with how easy/hard it would be to punch it out with hands only. That feels like I really should get a dozen and practice with my hands behind my back before I started relying on it...

    • @CoxysPicks

    I visited a brewery in Germany that sells its bottles with a reusable bottle cap on it (Flensburger, but there are many brands with the plop).
    These have rubber rings and the tour guide said that farmers sometimes use the rubber rings to castrate their sheep.
    So ... if you can use the rubber rings to castrate sheep, it probably is also pretty good as a pump rubber ring as well ;D Its only 70 cents and you get a beer with it. Pretty good deal.
