Wenger Business Tool--a whole new paradigm
on: April 21, 2009, 07:18:59 PM
Here's a little photo review of the WBT, the answer to the most elusive of MT.O quests.  :D

To start with, this isn't a pocket carry tool.  It could be in a sheath, but honestly? A stapler on your belt? 

I don't think so.

That said, it does seem quite sleek in the office environment




The stapler works quite well.  It takes a #10 staple, which is a European staple size, but they are available in the US, just harder to find.  It comes with 200 staples when purchased new, however.  The WBT will staple up to 10 pages (at least) with no problem.

There is a button on top to release the stapler head, and that must be released for each staple.  It's easy, but keeps the  WBT from being a mass production unit--think of it as an executive's stapler  :D



The hole punch has a very handy crosshair for centering hole punches.  It will also accomodate 10 pages easily.



To release the other tools, one must press down on the lever on either side


The scissors are really impressive.  I wonder if they're similar to the scissors in any of the Ranger series.


Here's a comparison to the scissors on a 91mm Vic and to the Wenger Clipper scissors



The blade looks to be the standard Wenger 84mm sized SAK blade.  Here it is compared to a 91 mm Vic blade




All in all, this is an extremely capable office tool in a compact, highly functional package.

Great!  :tu:  Thanks for doing that.

I just wished it didn't have the blade (and was about a quarter of the price).
I'm back!!

That's pretty nifty!  The only thing I'd like to see added is a LCD clock, to make it a useful office tool even when you're not using it.

Great pics MR. W :tu: Odd little tool but for an office environment would be more ideal :cheers: Love the scissors on it but how hard are they to use :think: Seems like it would be a bit awkward to cut things with it so how is that for you?

Great writeup thanks for that :salute:
