Gerber Shard Interest?

So I was in the pry-bars thread and saw a few mentions of the shard and a couple interests. I wanted to see just how many people here are truly interested in this product, just curious, or already know they will buy one. Well wouldn't it be great if we could get a well respected fellow Rat Pack to get a hold of one and do a comprehensive review on one, and give us all their experienced opinions? So I happen to have a couple of them and I would gladly supply one to such a reviewer, so that we can all learn a little more about this item.
First I wanna hear nominations/votes for who you all want to review it and then just simple posts to verify your interest to see if I am wasting my time. I realize this is the Rat Forum and the review may not be very complex due to the simplicity of the tool but I really only need one and would like to "donate" the other to good use. My vote would be to do a pass-around after the review until these become available in mass quantities.
Let's hear it!
 
Sounds interesting. I may be snagging one this summer, but it's low on the list. I have many other things to grab before I can even think about another pry tool. :p

Seriously, though, I think it was a great idea for them to try to get in on the mini pry tool market with a bladeless Artifact. I just don't like how aggressive the bottle opener looks--it would find every way it could to be uncomfortable on the Artifact, but it remains to be seen how it feels on this one.
 
Hadn't heard about the new artifact, and the shard is much more comfortable as a bottle opener, the ergo's IMO feel a lot better.
 
I've got an Artifact, and a County-Comm widgie, but I"ll probably give the Shard a try, just to see how it stacks up. It's not like it's going to be expensive
 
i want one. I just bought an Artifact today. ill probably be taking the xactor blade off soon. i really like the size of the shard though. kinda reminds me of an Atwood.
 
It's definitely the poor man's atwood, or a man that thinks it insane to spend that much on one (like me)
