If your idea works and gets patented, I may just sell my JackKnife and purchase one of those to replace it. :D

Completely off-topic...just was looking at your sig. Perhaps (this is only a suggestion) it should read: "Brute force is the FIRST resort of the incompetent and the last of the skilled" or something...hehehe..just a thought.

I think that it's actually a quote from here:

http://www.lysator.liu.se/mit-guide/lame.html

which is an article on MIT hacking ethics.

also quoted here:
http://hacks.mit.edu/Hacks/by_year/1993 ... r/may.html

the MIT IHTFP Hack gallery.
Oh look! it's 2016!

Xerty,

You never said if they decided to manufacture the product. I am new to the site and as i was reading through this thread i had the same type of concept pop into my head. You beat me to it :wink: But waht i am really curoius about is whether i will be able to buy one form anywhere because i would like to put something like that in my set when i build one. Please get back to me about that. PM me or something.
What if I pick "Pandora's Box"?

Never used one of these tools, and I don't plan on ever buying one. When I first looked at buying tools I thought one would be neat, but I've gotten over that. :)

they're not good for much... poor feedback, a pain to set up, stupid sckrew comes out...

and the novelty of the "coolness" wears off quickly. it's not a pickers pick, it's a conversation peice.

Now I may seem like a complete moron, but what about if they take it and to a back to back duel linerlock deal but with picks instead of blades, it's been proven easy with one hand time and time again with knives, and they could even go so far as to use torx screws that you could remove and move your picks around so that you could have them each in a different position and have two picks out at one time and it could be your most commonly used picks. Heck, they could make a lot of money by selling it with four tools and selling other tools seperately so you could get exactly what you wanted. For those of you not familiar with doubled up linerlocks, here's a link http://www.eknifeworks.com/webapp/eComm ... SKU=BU5551
You can pick your friends, and you can pick your nose, but if you pick your neighbor's locks, you might get in trouble.
