We're not 100% sure who made this hexagon since we can't find any markings on it, though since Clog and Troll were the only companies making hexagons back in the 1970's, when this dates from, it's likely one or the other and we've taken an educated guess on Clog. You'll see hexagons with angled ends and lightening holes for sale in their 1974 catalogue opposite.
Our good friend John Temple gave it to us and we are rather concerned about the sewing of sling ... looks like his granny did it!
