Thanks for your feedback @eternalmetal – I think we will leave the tool as it is for the moment

Very well said! Having lucked out on getting a v2 pick from zipline, I was afraid the tip would be too sharp. I’m glad to say it’s exactly what I was hoping for and won’t cause any accidental stab wounds while digging for any knots.
I rarely tinker with c-clips, and when I do it’s with a safety pin which is significantly sharper than anything I’d want to poke at a knot with.
The only thing the current Throw Key doesn’t have is a string cutter. Though notice how I didn’t say missing, as I don’t feel it is necessary whatsoever to be included. Granted I always have a pair of scissors available in my office.

We tried adding a string cutter, but the machining complexity increased ($$$) substantially.

Don’t make it any more pointy This tool doesn’t need to be able to remove Shields. It’s a string pick not a shield remover. I haven’t even removed a bearing shield in years. Definitely never needed to do it out and about somewhere I didn’t have tools. I have both versions and the new one is just right.

The tiny o-rings arrived today. They matched the specs but are too small. After several tries I managed to work one past the threads and it fit into the groove nicely. But, it is too small to make any difference. Too bad. 
I will try looking again…

That looks an awful lot the same as mine does with the o-ring granted mine came with it on and I haven’t taken it off but I don’t really feel it grab as you screw it together but it does hold it in place

If anyone would like a few of these o-rings send me your address in a PM and I will send them out by US Post.

I think making an attachment for the needle point to remove C clips would be more preferable to changing the string pick itself, although that would increase the cost of the product.
Thanks for looking into this @fos1 . Installing dozens of these o-rings was very challenging as you could imagine.

the ideal size would be I.D. 1.8-1.9mm with 1.3 mm thickness (in inches: I.D. 0.07-0.074 in and 0.051 in thickness)— I just could not find it in Canada.

Agreed. The usability of the needle point, however, would not justify the extra cost. I think is cheaper to have a needle handy

Update: only a handful of throw keys available after organizing inventory.

I snagged one thanks for the update. I messaged about just combining my stuff. The wife would be more respective of one box vs several smaller ones. @jeduardo

Yes that throwkey has to be the best yoyo multitool around. Have wondered if there would be another run.
