New from CES - Victorinox Tomo designed by Abitax
on: January 09, 2011, 05:33:59 PM
Just read about this here on another blog. A key chain knife with solid nylon rectangle shaped scales. The packaging it comes in is some kind of recycled egg crate material. Very interesting. The design evidently comes from Japanese Tokyo designers Abitax.

Definitely interesting, though I can't say it's much of a looker IMO.  I can believe that it might feel nice in the hand though.

Hideous!

I suspect it's damn uncomfortable in the hand too.

I like it... I think.  Will they be exclusive to Japan, or available (hopefully around the price of a Classic SD or /maybe/ Rambler) Stateside, too?

Personally I think those are really neat. I hope they come in at a good price point to make for nice stocking stuffers. :)

You know, so long as these are at a good price, and available in the US, they may be the only new releases I'll get this year; it just depends on what Grant finds at the SHOT show. :/

I kind of like them!  I don't see a toothpick and tweezer, though.  Maybe my eyes are failing me.

Hi this is wonderful,,, from my information Cellidor is an natural plastic product made by celulose from wood, this is no guarantie info :) so i wonder if it is nylon(like sad) or Celliodor? I like the egg recyled paper box, i wonder if the Nylon is environment friendly also...
Super little pocketknife anyhow...

A couple websites are now stating a Spring release date on these; still no information on whether they're a Japan exclusive or not.
