As the title states, I'm looking for a Filco keypuller. The crappy ring keypuller just isn't cutting it because I noticed that it scratched my ALT key today. :( PM me with you offers please.

qtan is selling one here.

The shipping time might be a bit longer since it's the holiday season. It took me a bit over 2 weeks to get mine. But if you're in no rush, definitely give the site a look.

There is only a $1 to $2 difference between the Filco and WASD one. Whats the difference in quality?

Wires are thicker on the WASD and I think the way the wires attach to the handle is better

But it only holds 2 keys!

Is this like arguing about ping versus ring?
I do one key at a time anyway so no worries about that.

Those metal pullers that come with realforce boards are terrible. You'd think with the price of those boards they'd give you something that wouldn't scratch the hell out of your keycaps.

Personally I think the thicker wire is more of a disadvantage. Also it seems the wire attaches the same way on my new Filco keypuller.
