if it is an answer, its a lame one...they dont have the size listed but judging it by the usb part it looks really tiny and you wouldnt really be able to flip it much...just for show...reminds me of the switch blade comb...fun to open the first or second time but that's about it. (and fun being when i was 7 or 8)

tony, yeah it will be small, based on the USB connect part... And being close to 60bucks for a 2GB flashdrive is kinda expensive.. Even if you get free wallpapers included :D

I like it. Kinda small and pointless, but I'm sure it's still fun :D

I wonder what the handles are made out of... If it's Ti, then it's worth the price. Aluminum would make the price seem a little expensive, and plastic is just a downright ripoff.


EDIT: They are plastic. Darnit, I thought it would be cool, but not for that price.

considering i just bought double the space for $20(reg 30)... I'd say ridiculous. It would have to have a real blade on it for me.

Yeah, but can you flip yours? LOL! :D

Honestly, I have seen a "raw" car key in a bali handle on youtube, but dont know who is selling these. Although I dont have a car, it would be cool to have it for an appartment key ;)

EDIT: Found the vid:

no idea who might be selling them. I can't even remember where I found the pic to begin with, was likely on BFC. I just threw the pic on my page in the hopes of getting around to making one eventually.

I dont much think that is very useful and for the price you can get so much more. I just picked this up a few weeks ago, 8gig, SS construction and water resistant. ( I dropped it in a glass of water to see and it worked fine after.) was only $30 shipped. I am happy with it. Sorry for the crappy camera picture
