I think you missed one.

I present the tactical hair clip!
(Image removed from quote.)

My wife wants one...

I must confess I did order those... I think I have a spare I can donate for the test, if there is any interest?

I think for EDC, the tactical hair clip must be supplemented with the Hedgehog wallet hair comb!

(Image removed from quote.)
I don't get that hedgehog. It looks like an aweful excuse for a tool :td:

I think you are supposed to grow your hair out so you can use it like a french hair comb



It would be an MT fashion statement  :D

I was about to toss in the Ninja Wallet here as it cost me Php70 here in Manila, Philippines.  Exchange rate is USD1:Php45 approx so this would be like USD1.6.  I'm sure what we (or I have in my wallet) is a China copy.  I have to admit being surprised as well that an eBay.com search showed me that the Ninja Wallet to be around USD9.99! 

Problem with the Ninja Wallet is that, well, it's actually in my wallet.  I have a habit of keeping loose bills outside my wallet to prevent from having to pull it out (and confirming/showing which pocket my wallet is in or what cards I carry in them) so having to pull out the Ninja Wallet outside for whatever is somewhat against a second nature.......

Contender #14 and Contender #16 are in!

I was thinking that it might be kind of fun to make a bit of a game out of this.  Guess which one will arrive next and the first person who gets it right will win that tool- after I review it of course!  :D

So, which contender will arrive next?   :pok:

Wow, I paid $100 for my TAD Skeleton Key and I could have had one for less than $2!!



Only thing is, the $2 version looks like it wouldn't open a bottle!

A replica TAD skeleton will open a bottle OK, but the difference between the two is huge.

Keep your original and forget you ever saw a copy.  ;)

Here's my 3 copies (I left one of them as-is and modified the other two), got them as group deal for $4.99 total.


EDC and OCD. A wicked mix.

Very kind of you boss... but honestly I think it would be cheaper for you and easier for everyone if you just sent people new tools... as you're not subsidized by the Chinese state (to my knowledge Mr. Jimmy Wang) and they won't pick up for your shipping costs, the shipping would probably cost 7-8 times more than the tool itself...

What's life without a little fun in it?

I doubt shipping will be that great of a cost for these as they are all pretty flat and light,  and besides, it is much more fun to get people involved and I'd love to hear other people's thoughts on them.

I've been meaning to read this, and finally did. Now I've got a #3 on it's way to me  :facepalm:

Also got these yesterday, with a little clip light, for $2.19, so they'd technically qualify :o
The opt is really stout, much nicer than I'd expect. The site claims us made, it's thicker than my brewzer.

I've been meaning to read this, and finally did. Now I've got a #3 on it's way to me  :facepalm:

Also got these yesterday, with a little clip light, for $2.19, so they'd technically qualify :o
The opt is really stout, much nicer than I'd expect. The site claims us made, it's thicker than my brewzer.

Can't wait to see how this all turns out! Great idea boss!

That's nice! They have a bunch of interesting little tools: http://www.screwpoptool.com/. Be good to watch and see what else they come out with :)

Wow, there are a couple I wouldn't mind to have, but not at amazon prices.. Hard when I paid so little for mine

I have the original Screwpop tool and it is both an excellent bottle opener and screwdriver.  That is about all it is though- not so good if you need a can opener or file!

That's the one.

Too bulky for a Keychain though.

Agree, but my keys usually don't have anything, the brewzer on s-biner is all I've ever had. I'd also be nervous about dropping the bit, though the magnet seems sound, everything has its limits, and edc has a way of finding 'em  :)

I agree, but if it isn't good for EDC then it's not good for anything IMHO.

What good is a tool that you don't have when you need it?
