For me there are two parts to the process. Opening the box and banging back the nail. i reckon it could do both. 

Bugger it. I am going to buy one. It is 10am and I haven't bought anything yet today :rolleyes:

Better put the local ER on speed dial first.

And I'll let Di know to order more first aid supplies. :P

...and I am on blood thinners. I will bleed out before our Adam (our designated health and safety officer) applies the Johnson and Johnson dinosaur bandaids.  It's tough on Adam as he can't stand the sight of blood.

Get yourself a steel mesh or cut proof glove. I used to have a pair, when I worked in the rag trade, for cutting thick bolts of cloth.

When sat at your desk what do you need to measure, approximately at that, in half inch increments? I don't do office work so I can't see the point of this feature. Prez's box /nails idea seems practical though.

Update. 

 

Pro's

Has arrived. Magnificent piece of kit. Gorgeous. Flat sides make it practical to hammer in nails easily. Nice heft to it. Super sharp

 

Con's

Super sharp.  

Cut myself 3 times in first 4 minutes.  Only safety feature is that small thumbnail size block of wood.  I have put it to the side of my desk as too scared to use it. 

Thanks for the review! I was really curious about this thing!

Why am I not surprised?

Can we expect a discount for cigars that arrive with spots of dried blood on them?

Your safe. I never even got to try to open boxes. I cut my fingers seeing if it would bang in a cigar box nail :rolleyes:

On the bright side: you did not actually hammer your thumb instead of the nail ... something that happens to me with painful regularity.
