Nov 13 2007Clam Shell Opener Opens Packages Easily

The Dual Bladed EZ Clam Shell Opener from thinkgeek is a device made for opening those annoying-as-hell clamshells that everything I buy seems to come in these days. It'll set you back $5, and in an ironic twist, the "Product comes in clam shell packaging (the last one you'll ever struggle to open!)". Oh the hilarity. Too bad I ordered one a week ago and now it's sitting in a pile with the rest of unopened clam shells I have. You see, I'm not allowed to use scissors or knives anymore without supervision. You accidentally stab yourself in the head a couple times and everyone freaks out and thinks you're a danger to yourself.

Weak. This has been around forever and is hardly cool or technologically relevant.

My grandfather had one of these in the 80s but he called it a pocket knife.
And #3 what you really need is a hole in your head.

I like the plastic surgeon package opener. And it didn't come in its own clamshell package!
