The Adventures of Gadgetman
OK, so the novelty of the "Crappy 80's Song of the Week" feature seems to be wearing off. It's like putting out weekly reasons not to vote for John Kerry - so much material, so little time. Crappy 80's music will still be featured in the future should I deem it relevant at any time.
Now, allow me to introduce to you the newest semi-quasi-regular series of installments you will find here at mAss Backwards: The Adventures of Gadgetman. I love gadgets. Nothing unusual there. 99.99% of American men love gadgets. From drills to grills, bring it on! So without further delay, here is this week's Gadgetman offering:
The HUSKY Folding Lock-back Utility Knife ($9.97 at Home Depot)
Blade dull? No problem, just flip it around (or pop in a new one).
When locked in the open position, this knife offers you 4.75" of a pretty solid grip. Would be quite adequate if needed in any kind of up close and personal self-defense situation. Best of all, it retails for (ever so slightly) less than ten bucks. This meets the requirements for "no special spousal permission required" for tool purchases - for those of us with such spousal/budget restrictions.

With assured cutting and a wide variety of uses, this locking blade combines neatly combines the versatility of a utility knife with the convenience of a pocket knife. Using a patented snap lock and sliding mechanism, the blade is easily changed. The anodized aluminum handle won't rust and the pocket clip keeps it handy. Folds to 3-1/2 in. when closed. Accepts all standard utility blades. (10 Blades Included).When my Leatherman Wave (SUPERB piece of gadgetry indeed) went MIA, I picked up one of these on a recent trip to Home Depot.
