Are you like a bazillion other people that use their car keys to open boxes? Don’t you hate it when tape particles stick to your car key. The Key Knife can solve that problem because it has a retractable snap-off blade built into the key shaped holder. The Key Knife is available from World Tools for a whopping $1.35 each.

Um… shipping costs $18. So don’t bother
The company I work for gives these out as a promotion. They are called a Cutzit
Beat me to it. $18 to ship something that can be mailed for 44 cents.
Will be awesome when that blade slips open in your pocket, too.
Not $18 for shipping. $18.99 !!! NINETEEN DOLLARS to ship something that could be mailed and handled for less than $1.50!
You will definitely realize its “handiness” when you forget to take it off your keys…………….. and walk through a TSA checkpoint.
Tape particles will be the least of your concerns.
Not sure why folks goes all crazy about “shipping fees.”
Which is a better buy?
– an iPad for $100 +$300 shipping fee
– an iPad for $500 with free shipping
It is the total cost (unit+shipping) that should be the deciding factor. Now…$20 for this tool may or may not be a great buy, but it is silly to get all huffy about just the shipping fee.
RDI, in this case the shipping fee is absurd. The last line of the article comments about the low price of the item at $1.35. It’s a scam and people shouldn’t be happy about any company that engages in business practices like that. Honestly, there should have been a note about the shipping in the article.
Sorry guys, I didn’t actually try to buy one, so I didn’t see the shipping price problem…
Ken…no argument that the shipping fee is absurd, but we see it more as a gimmick than a scam, no different than charging a higher price and providing “free” shipping.
Again…the TOTAL price is the only number which should be of concern in any transaction. Folks who base their buying decision on any other number are just fooling themselves.
