History:
Suicide or "Brodie" Knob is named after "bridge
jumper" Steve Brodie (1863–1901), a brodie knob (alternate spelling brody
knob) is a knob that attaches to the steering wheel of an automobile. The
knob swivels, and is intended to make steering with one hand less difficult.
Brodie knobs are also known as suicide knobs or necker knobs,
presumably because they allow steering with one hand while the driver wraps
his other arm around his passenger's shoulders. One disadvantage of the knob
is letting go of the steering wheel after going around a corner, the
steering wheel spins very rapidly and the knob can hit your elbow very hard.
Other names include Suicide Knob, Granny Knob, and Steering Wheel Spinner.
Although brodie knobs also
known as suicide knobs enjoyed limited popularity on trucks before the
advent of power steering. Their main use today is still in trucks,
particularly semi trucks where they allow simultaneous steering and
operation of the radio or gearshift. They also see extensive use on forklift
trucks used in warehouses and even riding lawnmowers, where frequent sharp
turning is required while moving about. The knob is also standard equipment
in most modern farm and commercial tractors, its main purpose being to ease
single-hand steering while the driver operates other controls with his/her
other hand or is traveling in reverse.
Brodie Knobs were widely popularized, especially on the west coast of the
U.S., during the 1950s. Their intention was to be used primarily as an
addition to a Hot Rod. The knob was used to spin the steering wheel, rapidly
in one direction or the other, while accelerating, to cause the tire(s) to
spin while rapidly whipping the car 180 degrees or half of a "doughnut".
Hence the term "lay a brodie". In the 1950s and 60's a person could go into
any local "Pep Boys" and choose from a large variety of brodie knobs, with
every conceivable theme, from "Candy Apple colored", "Product Logos", to
"nude women," and everything in between. They were very useful during a
period of auto manufacturing when power steering was truly a luxury.
