Authentic 1888 M. Klein & Son “Haven’s Grip” Cable-Pulling Tool
Add a distinctive piece of late 19th-century American tool history to your collection with this early M. Klein & Son “Haven’s Grip” cable-pulling tool, featuring an earliest patent date of June 1888.
Originally designed for linemen and fencing work, this heavy-duty tool was used to securely grip and pull cable or wire. This particular example carries the early “M. Klein & Son” marking, dating it to a period when M. Klein had only one son associated with the business. Later examples were marked to indicate multiple sons, making this an especially interesting early piece.
