snap-on makes a spark plug tool?!

i was just chatting with a fellow in a sister car-club locally and he says i can borrow his snap-on SVX spark-plug removal tool.i have NO IDEA what this is, but i readily accepted his offer!!

apparently he used to wrench at one of our local subey dealers and has this tool....

anyone know what this looks like?
and if its still available from snap-on?

he said the book allowed 2hrs to do a plug change and he could do it in 20 mins (!!) with the help of this tool.......

any thoughts.......?

All I can think of is a socket with some rubber or foam in it that allows the plug to stay in the socket when you put it in or take it out. That way you don't have to worry about it falling out of the socket and falling down into the unknown. If it isn't that, please let us know what it is. Take a couple of pictures as well. Thanks

Both look helpful, but the double universal one looks good for getting into tight places.
