Want To Just Punch Something?
Well, here you go. This very high-quality punch set is made for leather, faux-leather, hardboard, soft wood, paperboard, plastics and soft metals. Includes (9) sharp-edged punches (3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 1/2", 5/8", 25/32", 1", 1-1/4") that screw onto the heavy-duty driver. A spring-loaded guide holds the punch 3/16" above the material, ready for you to give it a whack with a hammer or the heel of your hand for a good, clean cut. Comes in a black-plastic carrying case.

Filthy Lucre
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
For archeologically minded numismatists, now comes the "Dirty Old Coins" kit, complete with (5) genuine, hand-struck ancient coins from 1,500 to over 2,000 years old, all with their own authentic dirt and ancient schmutz still attached. All "Made in the Roman Empire. Assembled in the U.S.A." You get a 12pp instruction booklet, a PC or Mac-compatible CD-ROM coin image database for identification, a stiff brush, double-lens magnifier, and cleaning and de-corrosion fluids. Most coins will be worth a few dollars, the supplier says, but some rare finds could be worth "hundreds or even thousands." Plenty of fun either way.

Want To Throw In The Trowel?
This one's easier to toss, cuz it folds in half. Johnny Appleseed would have carried one of these if he'd had our web address. Our folding garden trowel is a 5-3/4" x 2-1/8" when inside its black canvas belt carrier, but opens and locks to 8-7/8" long. All stainless steel, so there are no rust problems for you itinerant gardeners.

Pole Mounts
These U-bolts and mounting plates were made to be part of TV wall-mount systems, but we're not sure how, exactly. They're useful, however, for attaching things to round stuff: pipes, big dowels, like that, or vice-versa. You get (4) 3/16" U-bolts, 3-1/2" long x 1-1/2" ID with 7/8" long threads, nuts and lock washers. They slip through 2-1/2" x 1-1/4" steel mounting plates with a notched "V" on 5/8" tall wings, and (4) additional perforations which could take screws.

The $10 Chain Saw
No gas or electricity needed for this pocket-sized manual chain saw, the camper's pal. It's 30" long overall, with (82) spring-steel teeth on the 18-1/2" middle section, and canvas loop handles on each end. Imagine a cross between a sharpened bike chain and a garotte. It's easy to use (we tested it), works a whole lot faster than a hatchet, rolls up into no space at all, and stores in the heavy-duty canvas belt pouch that comes with it.

Light My Fire
C'mon baby, light someone's fire with this magnesium and flint fire-starter kit. The 3" steel hack-saw-type blade and a 3-1/8" x 3/8" x 1-1/8" hunk of magnesium, with a rod of flint embedded in one long side, are on a keychain for carrying but are easily removed from it. With the serrated edge of the blade, shave some Mg into a small pile of tinder. Strike the flint with the opposite edge to spark the tinder-Mg's interest, and you're Prometheus.

Comes with (2) rechargeable "AA" 1500 mAhbatteries, an LED indicator light, and measures a compact 3-1/4" x 1-5/16" x 3/4". Why a "green" charger?
