    Thx billb3
    Once educated on what it was, purpose seemed fairly clear.

    All my boots are steel toed work boots.. no need for a boot jack.

    Could use one of the boot brushes though.

    My mom used to weld a wicked spoon. All our friends knew it also. :rofl: :lol: when we grew up and we were at a neighbors, they had permission to correct bad behavior and you always got it a second time when you got home.
