The Shard and I don't get along!
on: December 12, 2012, 07:55:20 AM
I had it on my keys and it poked me in the leg so much it just drove me crazy.......er than I already am. Not to mention it did this to the first beer I opened with it. To top it off it was my only beer in the house. I am banishing it to the junk drawer.  :rant:

Oh wow I just saw this thread. :(  I recently got a Gerber Shard too, but it seems to open bottles ok.  Sometimes it takes a couple tries, but I figure it is a technique sort of thing.

Could the tooth on your opener be bent?

Looks normal to me. I think it was more operator error for me. The opener is just to agressive for me.

Hopefully by now Sparky should be able to recommend the bottle opener on another one-piece prying tool.
Pictures of most of my work can be found on my Facebook Page.
Also have a look at my Shapeways Shop and SW Torch Shop for 3D printed items.

Oh yes, lets recommend the properly sharp one to the guy who admits he keeps stabbing himself in the leg. :whistle:
