I happen to think that the lowly Bic design is really clever.

True but it has to be a Bic. Nothing else is even remotely worthy. I bought a Bic 5 pack several months ago and still have 3 left in the package.

Feudor made a very good disposible back in the 80s. We also used the bottom to open our glass soda bottles.

True, true. Bics have that oval cross section that feels right in your hand. And they have their own sound too -- a nice crisp scritch that the others can't match.

BTW, a Bic can be used to open a bottle cap once you've got the technique down.
