Now you can backup your website to your Swiss Army Knife


Do you love your USB stick? Do you love Swiss Army Knives? Are you a nerdy web developer (or work in IT)? Then you will love this...

Put Your Website on Your New Swiss Army KnifeVictorinox, the maker of the world famous Swiss Army Knife has decided to make the foray into the world of portable media with the inclusion of a USB storage component with its new knife.

The 'Secure Pro Swiss Army Knife' is being marketed as "unhackable" and Victorinox is so confident of the security of their knife they offered $150,000 if you are the first professional hacker to get past the protection. This is indeed interesting given that we aren't sure what constitutes a "professional hacker". That said if you are a professional and you do feel the need to try and bypass the security, you will have to get past the fingerprint ID, thermal detector AND avoid the self-destruct mechanism. The good people at Victorinox have assured us that the whole knife doesn't blow up - just the CPU and internal chips of the USB storage.

Apart from the self-detonating USB drive, the knife also comes with the standard blade, scissors and screw driver, but also includes a ballpoint pen and LED light.

Working in web development and finding particular pleasure in all things new and nerdy, we are sure that a number of our staff will be sporting these in the near future. After all you can't really be considered a real web designer if you aren't able to take your website around with you on your portable, self-destructing, USB-enhanced pocket knife.
