Tool Kit (Part 3)

次回この記事の日本語版を投稿します。

In "Tool Kit (Part 1)" we examined a metal tool box that attached directly behind the top of the seat tube.  And, in the previous post, "Tool Kit (Part 2)", we took a look at a tool kit; one made of leather and specifically designed for hammock saddles.  In this post let's take a look at another unique leather tool kit.

This one fastens to the two eyelets provided on the back of high-end saddles.

Note that the front has no open/close fasteners.

Also a unique profile.

A leather strap attached to the side snaps to the bottom to keep the kit closed.

To open, pull down on the strap to unsnap it.

Pull on the strap.

And the tool kit slides out.

Similar to the hammock saddle tool kit we saw in "Tool Kit (Part 2)"  the inner pouch can be pulled all the way out.

The kit has a set of four tools.

Tools are stamped "Kennet"

I've mentioned what I like to call "Idea Archeology".  Old things are the ancestors of today's version.  Frozen in time, old things are unique because they are a virtual time machine enabling us to have a glimpse of the design, technology, materials, features, functionality and ideas of their generation.
