the "Safety Pin"

Dudes look what I found, http://www.awdirect.com/safety-pin-2-3- ... hop-tools/

Not a really big deal but I thought it was trippy enough to make mention of it.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture

It would take alot of work to get that to be a snapper... check out the diameter of the wire...

I think the best bet would be to weld a tip on there...

kinda neat though

I have an old snap gun fashioned after this design. The pin was made into a longer extension and flattened to fit into lock keyways. I had to thin it down quite a bit to make it work in modern keyways, but I'll put it up against any automatic snap gun out there.

Looks like a discreet tension wrench and potential lifter pick to me....
