[Well he's a little suspicious but he's not that naturally distrustful so he does show up, elbowing the door open with his left arm because his right hand is in his pocket for some reason.]
Look, I know it isn't ideal. Believe me, I tried making a better version, but apparently working on anything in the lab or the blacksmith's just leads to those items being permanently trapped there.
This is the best I could do within the limitations. And isn't having some kind of tool for a hand better than none at all?
[And now that heβs over his initial confusion, and it hits him that Vlad went out of his way to do something to help him... thereβs this wave of gratitude? Having friends is nice.]

It requires manual operation to open and close, but I did include some string to at least make it easier to hold any given position as you need.
As I said--it's shoddy work, really, not nearly up to my usual standards, but it's the best I could manage with the resources at hand.
