The prices are going to be pretty good too!

What do the holes do? or are they just for decoration ... or making it into a button

There are just to give the piece a little interest.

I hate the large hole on the original. The added holes give you the option to carry it anyway you like on your keychain. If there is a size that you use more often, you can move the screwdriver so the part you use the most will be in the correct position.

I've wanted something like this for years! I know Lee Valley has them something like 12 for $8, but they are total crap, IMO.

Make the middle hole a 1/4'' hex driver and you've got a winner.

It will add too much to the cost. This project is being done on a $500,000 CNC machine and you wouldn't believe how much it costs just in bits to get this project done. I could do almost anything with this project, but would anyone like to pay $100 for a pocket screwdiver?

We were going to add tritium, but that would have cost and extra $25 and I just felt it was too much extra. I'm really happy to get these done in titanium for $25.

Those look awesome.

John sent me a Swiss Cross that Dave22 made (love it mate, thanks

) and it is superb.

I bet these will be great as well.

You're welcome, mate!

Dave makes some really cool stuff! He stuff is in high demand as he only makes small batches. He does this as a hobby and gets bored easily. He told me he was making big $$$ making RC car parts but got so bored that he quit making them.

I understand John. I just suggested making the middle hole a 1/4'' hex instead of a circle; I should have said I've no idea whatsoever about what is doable with a cnc machine and what not. Good luck mate!

Oh... I agree with you 100%!

It would be very cool, I just wanted everyone to know why it couldn't be done.

That would be quite wonderful
