A foot of rebar can be used for many things, such as:
Tent stake
Fire pit stirrer
1/2 a splint for a broken leg:confused:
tie down anchor for small to medium dog(or child:D)
make-shift handle for spotter rope
cut in half and with some small u-bolts and JB Weld...a temporary field fix for a broken tie rod
when propped up correctly...a perfect way to flatten your enemys tire:eek:
perfect item to hold up your beer chicken
when sharpened and tied to a stick, a deadly hog killer
a weight for those pesky fly away paper plates
a weight to tie to the end of your rope(careful!)

I'm sure there's lots more...
