Hey now,  the knife, steak knife Idea I have had for awhile, but that pipe wrench table, that is terrific.   Could also work with monkey wrenches, just have to find 6 24 inch monkeys to start with.   For the knives, have been contemplating using an old or ruined combo wrench, of a make that won't cause too much heart burn here.   I quit talking the Snapon guy at work, so guess I missed this fine collectible.

Interesting, I saw my first wrench knife this weekend at a flea market.
I thought it was the vendors original idea.
The table is great , won't tip that one over.

Here's a few I have made for my wife at the local ABA Hammer Ins.  They are at my friend, Joe Harris' house, and critters from junk is usually the theme.

I did the designing and forge work, but I had a lot of help with the welding, particularly on the first two (as in all the welding by someone else)


The last one does not have tools in it, but I am including it anyway.

Saw an ebay auction today that reminded me of this thread:

I was trying to replace the toilet paper roll, but the welder ignited the paper, and then bad things followed from there....
