Never seen this before,  apparently from Vince's Gym.

This one allows infinite angles, not just one way:

I think basically back in the day arm wrestling & big forearms were a thing.

I'm amazed too at the grip strength of some rock climbers

That Armbuster was made in Perry, NY which is a small town, south of the NYS Thruway between Rochester and Buffalo.

Perry is best known for the Perry Ice Cream Company which is a regional brand there.

Perry's for many years supplied the Wegman's supermarket chain with their house brand ice cream.

I don't know if this is still the case.

The tacks he mentioned in the video are ordinary upholstery tacks.

Another great method to build grip & lats is rope climbing.
Used as a staple exercise in Indian wrestling.
