What's a good letter opener kit?

[ossaguy]

I had several people asking if I had any letter openers for sale during my first time at a craft fair,so for next time I want to make some.

I have made a couple of the ones from Rockler,but the blade is so super flimsy,I'd like something more stiff that won't get bent so easily.

So I thought I'd ask you all here for first hand experience on what your best seller,or favorite kit is?

Thanks,
Steve

I bought this PSI Sculpted Letter opener: https://www.pennstateind.com/store/PKSC-LO6C.html

It worked-out well and coupled it with the matching pen as a gift for a good customer. I don't have any other experience with openers.

Look for "diamond profile" design. These have a rigid blade, that won't bend easily.

The one I make most is the one woodturningz sells in chrome and gunmetal. Very substantial blade and a reasonable cost. They go insane even cheaper once or twice a year.

Psi sells one that's almost the same in a satin finish.

I also make the one that matches the bolt action.

I just recently got a Majestic letter opener kit from Exotic Blanks. It definitely looks snazzy.
