It costs more than Ron Paul's campaign.

Is Wenger still producing those?
In order to be certain of having the right tool for every job.........one must first acquire a lot of tools

There are some that say the BusinessTool was the thing that started Wenger into a tailspin.I actually like the idea of it,I'd have one if I worked at something along the lines of a route salesman,or something similar where my vehicle was my office.I never cared much for the price.

I am embarrasses to say that I actually admire Wenger for this effort. It seems so odd, but there are plenty of times I needed a stapler, hole puncher, or staple remover on the road. I think if one could get past the uniqueness (ie strangeness) one may find it valuable for out of town meetings and travel.

That's the Wenger Business Tool and is basically a SAK stuck in the bottom of a stapler.  There were a few different versions/colors offered, but they were part of the reason Wenger went under.  They were a spectacular failure, partly due to the ~$70 price tag.

Then, another $20-30 if you wanted the sheath!

Leave the dents as they are- let your belongings show their scars as proudly as you do yours.

Shame about the price, but I actually quite like the idea. I'd have one I reckon. But then again I'll buy anything :D
I used to come here a lot.

Yup. I'm in school right now and that tool would be wicked-handy. I'd like to get into one cheap but can never find one second-hand so I've put off purchasing for a few years now.

I wonder if the TSA would even catch this on a passenger's carry-on?

It looks like a stapler and I'd be surprised if they even thought anybody in their right mind would make a pocket knife out of a stapler?

I would definitely buy it, if it were under $30, if for nothing else but to give people in the office something real silly to make fun of, instead of me always pulling out my CT-41  :D

Maybe if it was the size of those new mini-staplers. Like a Vic Classic. Only with staples.  :sak:

I think it would be quite funny if you were stopped by a LEO for having one of these.  Only the most seriously stick-up-the-bu** LEO would be able to suppress a laugh to give you a hard time.
