Iron pattens first came into use probably in 17th century A.D., and gained popularity by the first half of this century. The original design of the patten was that of one piece of shaped wood, but this evolved into to a wooden platform attached to the underside of an iron ring. The foot pattens were forerunners of the Wellington boot which came into use in 19th century A.D. -

The term 'ballock dagger' was used in medieval times to describe a dagger with a grip bearing a considerable resemblance to a phallic symbol. It was also called 'kidney dagger' during the Victorian times. The constant characteristic is the presence of two roundish and symmetrical bulbs at the guard, with the grip itself emerging upward between them and flaring slightly towards the top, sometimes being surmounted by a cap. -
