I've got no idea what it is, but I think we can rule out the tape splicer

Maybe a hole punch?

What's the maker's name (if you know it, that is)?

Moonlight · 09-14-15, 08:28 AM

That would give the game away Mr Squirrel.

I'll give you an extra clue, it is used on humans and some animals.

Aktungbby · 09-14-15, 08:38 AM

toe nail clipper

Moonlight · 09-14-15, 08:55 AM

I shouldn't have given you that last clue.

Betonov · 09-14-15, 08:57 AM

That's a toe nail clipper

Moonlight · 09-14-15, 09:05 AM

They do finger nails as well.

Aktungbby · 09-14-15, 09:29 AM

What's this?

Betonov · 09-14-15, 10:09 AM

Part of a riging on a modern sail boat and I think those little pulleys are made by Harken

Aktungbby · 09-14-15, 10:25 AM

Damn close! but what're they called? Hint: part of the 'standing' rigging as opposed to the 'running' rigging EDIT: Betonov gets it! I didn't properly post the photo so to include all three pully's The two shown are 'shreave' blocks

the one not shown is the 'fiddle' block -all together constitute the backstay spreader; which was what I was originally looking for. It adjusts the mast to an upright position

altering the mainsail's warp to suit wind/strain conditions..AS amply demonstrated by the handsome model...

(for Catalina, WestMarine and Weightwatchers-hey ballast is ballast BBY!).

Sailor Steve cannot be allowed to be the only

member with 'his mast up in port'

TAKE IT BETONOV!

Betonov · 09-14-15, 12:57 PM

This one should be easy, who's this ??

Aktungbby · 09-14-15, 01:01 PM

Gandulf the Grey on Sunday?

Betonov · 09-16-15, 11:28 AM

No, not Gandulf, but he was a wizard for some unfortunately influential people

HINT: he's European and he was instrumental in giving a rise to a major European power

Aktungbby · 09-16-15, 11:35 AM

Prussian related?
