After losing his hands in a childhood accident, Jay Armes worked hard and trained himself to use his steel prosthesis in any fashion that a hand could function, he also trained his mind and body and became an internationally known private eye complete with gadgets and a pet tiger!

Unless you lured him to a junkyard and got him under one of those electromagnetic cranes!
Good Grief! Another one that I'd forgotten about!
