Slick scissors.
Could put key ring through eye hole too I'm guessing an have them sit like a key on the keyring itself?.
I like them.

These are kind of cool, although  they might be hard to keep a grip on while cutting .[/img]

Thanks for sharing. For <$3 shipped, seems worth trying to me  :D

More likely just the same OEM, but different brands placed on them, like a lot of stuff coming out of China.

They look pretty good, but i would go for Victorinox classic sd.
About same size but has a blade, scissors and screwdriver and file plus lifetime warranty.

As a brand new Vic Classic SD can often be found for $10, a 'lifetime warranty' isn't exactly a big selling point, since it costs you $5 just to ship it to them. For the effort of packing it up, it's just as easy to just buy a new one. I'm not saying you're wrong, or that some people might not benefit from this, but I don't see it as a big selling point. I DO like the Classic SD though.

Let's be realistic here, as Lynn suggested, who's really going to warranty a Classic?

Not me. I got a bad one in a batch once and just tossed it out. It's such a rarity though with Vic. It's not like we're talking another company such as *cough* Leatherman *cough*

Agree about leatherman, it is a miracle if you get a good example.
Sadly it never happened to me.

In the Netherlands the classic costs 15 euros but i agree on the warranty you could better buy a new one.
But what if you carried it for twenty years.
Than it sure would be nice if they replaced that broken part for sentimental value.

Don't think I'd want to take up keychain space with something like that when the classic has a great scissors and added utility..... Not to say it's not a good scissors.

I have one and they are decent quality, but you can a brand new Classic for 1/3 the price.  The CS is also just a little to big for keychain carry, at least after I got used to the small profile of the Classic.

I have been carrying mine on my keychain for over a year now along with a Fenix E05.

I have some of those scissors. An unbranded example. They are rather awkward to use, and have absolutely no leverage. Build quality is decent at least, so there's that.
