  Me either, Scott. It's funny some inessential words stay in your memory for the lifetime once learned while other essential ones don't.

  First I thought it was some sort of a vault door knob, you know that round thing you turn to open it, then I realized the background looked like outdoor so it can't be it...

  Getting harder and harder which is good.

  EDIT : Well done, Yiannis! Impressive! And good night, Scott. Sweet dreams.

  Thank you folks!! If you have worked with them, it's easy to spot them...the shape is so distinctive.

  The human memory is a weird but wonderful thing. Why some things stick but others appear not to, is anyone's guess

  Cheers bud.  ; )

  Just me being pedantic but it is a woodworking vice rather than a metal vice .
