looks like mine, we all know the chain and can be used as a light screwdriver?    :tu:

I wouldn't. If I have a screw to deal with, then thats what the Victorinox quatro and P-38 in my wallet are for. Or my Leatherman squirt.
Don't get too serious, just enough will do.

I would think it would bend to easy :think: It is quite thin, it is fine for a lanyard attachment but might not be to good for a stubborn screw :ahhh I know you said light use, Tony but most of the times I don't know whether a screw will come out easy or not  :salute:

I have used the P-38 before and need to get a Quattro :tu:

Nice Christy's Poncho!
Here are mine. Click on photos for larger view.
I am trying to figure out which is the original ball chain they used.
I have seen both rounded balls, and faceted (little flat sides) on them.  I've also seen Ball Chain and Bead Chain stamped into the connectors.
Rest in peace ColoSwiss, you will always be remembered.

I would be interested in what you find out.
The Christy on the bottom left in my other photo has the button on the opposite side, and no writing on that side.  The front has Christy Pat. Pending as seen in the photo.
I'm trying to figure out why this one is different and I hope it is genuine.

Yes, some of them have no stamp in them as well.  Maybe they used various companies for the connectors.

Very likely as that is a very common connectors coming on lots of different things :cheers: Souvenir nail clippers come to my mind most prominently :D

Maybe it is a mod, for a leftie? It seems easy enough to do.

That's possible.  I sent an email to the Christy company yesterday and am hoping to hear back.

If I stumbled onto something like that, I may even re-evaluate my almost 50 year attachment to my beard! :o

LOL!!!!   :cheers:

It has a very solid feel but at the same time it is light and I was very tempted to shave with it, but I decided to keep it as is. It is a very well designed razor and feels like it would do a great job.

I may eventually pick another one up that is good shape and use it. I think you could use Schick injector blades in it.
