But, but, but...

It's not made of Damascus Titanium!  And there are no GITD trit's  :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh :ahhh

That's a pretty clever little tool.

Neat little gizmo, and looks like you can get them for around £3 - £4  :tu:

Before her stroke, my mother-in-law had serious problems with a form of muscular dystrophy. Tasks that most everyone take for granted that an adult should be able to do were beyond her abilities. This looks like a perfect and handy helper.

Also... 'Damascus Titanium'. SWEET!  :whistle:

Very handy little gadget :tu:

I was considering getting some tap turners before they came and redid the bathroom/WC here.... on a bad day when you can't grip things, it's enormously frustrating ::)

This looks like the first Multi my Mom would actually use - Depending on weather/daily condition her hands hurt her more or less and unlocking doors can be challenging.

Any hints on where to buy (as I´m too lazy to fill in teh contact form right now...)  ;)

It's not exactly good looking but I firmly believe in the "form follows function" principle and this really is useful.
