I saw a new Wenger Businesstool in a shop recently a few weeks ago... How much would these be worth? I don't care for them personally but might be nice for a trade or something.

Probably not even what they cost new... saw one on ebay going for 60Euros...

Mine is of course unique as they were unable to write Pat PEND straight

Guys, I really tried... and when my wife asked for a puncher I handed her the BusinessTool. She looked at me like I was weird or an alien or something. Needless to say she insisted on using the real puncher.

Is she still under warranty?
Perhaps you can return her back

Now I want one........

I was thinking I did, but the old Tot 50 still works fine. I used to carry it in my tool bag when I needed one frequently, and now it has a desk job, but not a demanding one.

If I was in the market for a new stapler, the SBT would top the list I'm sure.

Unmarried guys

<--- This guy is married

and firmly believes that men don't get to see a woman's bad side until they marry her

In all fairness, we have been living together for 14 years before we got married... I found one change!

When I called her in the office, she picked up the phone saying the new name and I got all confused thinking I dialed the wrong number

That is the only thing that has changed for me.

Yeah, I'm only half-serious about that. I do try my best to make my wife prove me right, though

Honestly, I think that if one lives together with somebody for a couple of years and one isn't completely dumb or the other person a slimy hypocrite, then you probably know them well enough to know if you can keep on living with them.

You just used to it, like you get used to back pain

Not much of a live test so far... the problem is that to its enormous size, the BT is never where it is needed. I got to use the blade a couple of times (e.g. to slice open a toothbrush package, so real heavy stuff). The blade is fine, I like the shape but the heavy lump of a handle combined with a rather small blade makes it not even second choice.

Mission Impossible - The hover spread

The BT is so fat you can't spread butter

. Well, you can but its not as easy as it should be.

Cutting Limes for a cocktail... darn the blade is short

Despite that, the cocktails were (are, still nipping on mine) great

Ok I'm digging mine out. I'm having stapler knife envy.

What other random everyday item should a sak be built around? Wearable multitool hat! Toilet plunger knife...
