EDC Gear Skeleton Key vs. Navy CUI 2001 keychain tool

Although the Skeleton Key looks quite cool with that skull pattern it lacks a couple of features that the Navy has.

-  Because of the proturding screwdriver tips on both sides the SK is quite uncomfortable to hold firmly.

- The Navy also has different wrench sizes and comes with a better fit & finish.

For sale: Blackwood Neck Knife

Stats are 155mm overall length, 
67mm tip to ricasso 
3mm O1 steel.

I have handled it in blackwood with brass tubing. The smaller tubes are currently hollow - I am happy to fill them with a black dyed epoxy for no extra cost.
This one has the feel of a full sized blade on a little handle. It's quite deceptive in appearance but with the thumb ramp it locks in place. I think a fob type lanyard would add to it further.
Yes, the blade has a slight blemish - I thought about grinding it out but it is purely cosmetic and the steel is carbon anyway so will take on a patina in use.

It is available for the cost of £55
