Hand clamp?

[Chef Niloc]

Any one ever see a hand clamp like this for sale anywhere?

Was very popular with the Inquisition, I believe.

Seriously, what the hell is that?

It's a old style clamp that's used to hold a knife sheath together as you stitch it. They seem to only be avalabule from this one shop in England, but they won't ship to the US think they are still holding a grudge about the war...the whole revolution thing??
Any way I thought a knife maker may use something like this so I posted it it see.

Maybe a UK member could receive it and then ship it to you.

It looks like an incredibly easy and simple thing to make out of sheet steel. Maybe one of our Knife making friends could make it out of some scrap for less hassle.

That's my next move if this post don't help.

I bet it's really some medieval torture device and Colin just doesn't want to tell us the truth. Nipple stretcher?

Hmmm. Well, while I'm working on your new 52100 splitter blade, I might as well try to make one of those things. I'll be sure to try it out on my fiance' first :-)
