It's sold out now.

Hmmm... I had no idea those were popular. Someone gave me one a few years ago for Christmas. I think I ended up tossing it in a donation bin somewhere.

nice pic ripster. I have one of them to, its not really red though, more orangey...

I got it because of the movie, of course. But it is a well made stapler.

While it has nothing to do with the movie, this is the best (regular) stapler I have used.  We used them when I worked in the bookeeping office.  It'll staple pretty much anything.

That scene with Snupe is one of my favorites of the series.

I always thought Italians use these type of staplers to get all things done.

That's the optional attachment for the knuckle guard.

And then there's the ultimate stapler as seen in "The Wire".


Whaaaaa??? Those things are real!
I bet I won't find them in the local B&Q though. :sad:

My stapler is about forty years old and my pencil sharpener is probably around 15-20. It's one of the nice ones that doesn't take electricity and sharpens your pencil faster.

I'll actually agree with you on this one.  I don't like electric sharpeners.  IMO, the old-school, classroom crank version is much better.
