Pocket Grappling Hook For Clandestine Missions

— January 6, 2009 — Unique
For those on the move and with spy missions on the mind, these grappling hooks can be indispensable. The Pocket Grappling Hook and its younger sibling, the Micro Pocket Grappling Hook can take care of all your “grappling” needs. All you need to do is unscrew the base of the hook, pull out the spikes and place them in their holes. Once you’re through with this, you are ready to roll.

Surprisingly, the little hook is capable of supporting weights up to 350 lbs., which should be more than enough for an adult and their spy gear. There seems to be no use for the hooks, unless you really do turn to spying, or perhaps you could get rid of the stairs at home and start using these grappling hooks instead!
