Hook staff

Post by bo_staff_assassin21 » Sun Apr 14, 2019 9:51 pm

Hello everyone. I'm relatively new to night ops, but I thought I'd share my newest climbing tool: the wooden hook staff. I got the idea from Stealth Technique's YouTube channel. A very cheap and simple tool to make (dowel rod and bike storage hook). It's infinitely more useful than I thought it would be. Totally recommend it.

I do love the idea, especially the collapsible version. Reminds me of a medieval billhook (used to dismount enemy cavalry). I've got a grappling hook with some rope that, while more compact, can be trickier to deploy than what's essentially a stick. Have you used the hook staff to scale anything before?

So far I've just used it to climb trees. Haven't had much time to try it out on buildings yet.
