30307 - Belaying Pin - 5mm

It was originally thought that these quick release wooden fastening pins for securing the running ends of the running lines appeared in the mid-17th century. However, belaying pins were found during the excavation of the Mary Rose, sunk in 1545, indicating that they were used at least 100 years earlier.
