Re: mouse, wife? House mice will cannibalize dead mice and probably means you have more than you think it's d-CON time.
It was a last resort for me, they are making it larger animal safe now my outside cats learned not to eat a dead mouse.
Re: Greenland, could be an unofficial military punishment for its wokies and nowadays always good to have a car hammer.
That is still a good deal for a hammer, comfortable and lightweight and seems the tariff war has not caught up to them.
I have some vintage tools that were passed down to me that came from my great grandfather in WV also likely beyond then.
One I plan on restoring is a 2 pound 1850 blacksmith hammer the exact same and condition as below was used back in 1850s.
That's American history probably was used to fix some wagon wheels passing through WV during the California Gold Rush era.
The handle rotted right at the head and broke off can fix looks original maybe yellow wood it used to be my most favorite.

Another project from West Virginia below, not mine but same one. It's rusty and for now I coated it good in oil to stop it.
Boice-Crane Co., around 1933

It's belt driven with an electric motor and somebody made blades using a bandsaw blade for one might have to try that idea out.
Anyway the fish have been popping the surface everywhere on my pond saw an osprey grab a big bass struggled flying 30' air high.
I've got a huge school of bass fingerlings that's a lot of money for restock. They are some pretty stocked hybrids, former owner.
