      Have you ever wanted to unscrew the fuze from a dudded aircraft bomb or artillery round, but you wanted to do it from far away?

      This do that.

      It’s 30% less cursed than the alternative tool.

        Even clamping this onto the fuse sounds terrifying

        But if you’re far away and things go wrong, you won’t get that sweet release of death?

        Seriously speaking though, that up close and personal version does look pretty fuckin cursed. I assume the call of the void is strong with EOD folks

          The other version is a mechanical impact wrench. Activated by repeatedly yanking on the rope with full body strength. Both versions of the tool get fitted onto the fuze first like in the photo.
