This entry needs a disambiguation page but I don't know how to do that! "Grapple" can refer to an implement, synonymous with a grapnel or a grappling hook, or to a mechanical attachment used on materials-handling equipment to hold and lift lift loads. The current Wikipedia entry for excavators refers to grapple attachments with a link to this page! There is also the verb "to grapple," with a meaning similar to "wrestle," which may or may not need an entry here.

This "article" strikes me as little more than an advertisement for a commercial product. MrDarwin 19:04, 8 March 2006 (UTC)

Well, in all fairness, a grapple is a weird item, and I was curious about what exactly it is and I did use this page to find out. The information, althouhg brief, is accurate. It is consistent with the other information I have seen on the internet.

Just recently tried a grape-flavored apple (a grapple) myself, and I must say, I was really disappointed. They didn't really taste like grapes in my opinion. The Fuji apple aint broke. Can't sleep, clown will eat me 05:44, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

Grapples ARE NOT FRUIT!

[edit] Pronunciation

OK people. grā-pəl = grape-L ≠ gră-pəl. Either grā-pəl or grape-L are right (but the former seems more appropriate for pronunciation guides) and gră-pəl is wrong. Hoof Hearted 21:16, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

The funny thing is that everyone calls the Grapples (they way it looks), I've never heard anyone call it a grape el.~Craig

I'm sure you're right, a lot of people say gră-pəl. But the logo, packaging, and website all include the bar over the long-a. So now you can make fun of your friends!  ;-) Hoof Hearted 16:03, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
