Have you seen these?

I gave one to a biker buddy of mine for Christmas, and got one for myself!

NOTE: On the other two red sides of the handle it says- "Considered a kitchen utensil, not guaranteed forever" (Boo!!! BAD Craftsman...)

Heh, I saw that the other day too at a K-Mart.

Seems like I've seen another heavy duty opener that was all steel, like a wrench. It may have also had Craftsman stamped on it.

No. The $1899 autocad thing he's talking about must be this computerized wood carving machine. Looks like a planer. Has like a dremel bit in it. Hooks up to your computer. Can do some really cool stuff. 3D Relief carvings, mouldings, signs etc.

I ain't ready for that yet - I'll settle for a $3K Plasma cutter and wire feed...
