Cardsharp2 - a Cool Wallet Card Knife

I'm not a knife collector, neither do I know how to appreciate a sharp blade.
But it is not hard for someone to like Iain Sinclair's Cardsharp2, a utility knife that also fits into your wallet.


Shaped in the form of a credit card, and weighing merely 13 grams, Cardsharp2 is extremely portable. You may leave it in your wallet, and totally forget about its existence - happened to me once at the custom security check! The blade of the knife is made of "surgical steel" which I guess is a type of less premium stainless steel, while the body is made of hard plastic. After you unlock the safety catch, it only requires 3 folds to convert the card into a knife. 


Because of the bendable parts, the grip of the knife is not as solid as those swiss army knives or other dedicated knives. The blade of the knife is also not samurai sharp. But hey that's okay, Cardsharp2 is not meant to replace those hard use knives. It is more for the convenience, and the occasional situations where you are out about, and need to slice something open.


When those rare emergencies arise, you can almost hear the James Bond theme ring in the background when you take that Cardsharp2 out...

  2. Got it online. The packaging was very small and light, shipping didn't cost much by weight.
