T-Bot...What in the world is this thing??? Pretty sweet - what is it?

[Sproles]

I am not sure what this is, but it is intriguing to me. A cross between a karambit and a kubaton maybe? TAD gear calls it a T-Bot, but I am still trying to figure the whole thing out...

Anyone seen one or have one?

I have 3 on order with the maker and it should be done in a couple of weeks. It is a bottle cap tool...that's it. Really. Heh!

this was made fun of in another thread... what some people dont realise is everything is a weapon, and sometimes things are purposely made to look like other things to hide their true purpose

To better disguise a weapon aspect, it should be colored a little plainer.

Steve (?) Tarani has something along the same lines: http://www.karambit.com/control_device1.htm

Though I doubt it opens bottles.

Going by the 4.5" overall length, I could barely get my hand on the little thing. Why do kerambits generally come so small?

In all seriousness, perhaps it should be marketed to those with limited hand strength due to carpal tunnel, deCuervain's, or tendonitis, as it would magnify the amount of leverage exerted and ensure a non-slip grip.

Well, they didn't do a very good job of disguising it. Yes, everything can beused as a weapon in the right hands. I could do just as much damage using a regular old bottle/can opener without the paracord wrap and tiger stripes. Besides, a regular old bottle/can opener would be way more stealth and have more of an element of surprise than that thing does.

Looks cool to me, as a bottle opener, but if you think that would fool anyone who wants to know if it's a weapon, guess again! It's a pretty mean-looking little tool. "Gee, officer, it's a bottle opener..." yeah, right. Now, where's my checkbook...

Has tons of 'cool factor' for sure. Something I would buy and fondle for a few days and tuck into my "fun drawer" for safe keeping.

When I wanna spend $54.00 on a church key, I get a T-Bot!

I think that it's an awesome design! I can't wait to see one at Blade!
