Victorinox Launches New James Bond-Style Secure USB Drive

Victorinox has been making famous knives for years (what would MacGyver have been without his—a dude with a mullet?) but now they’ve stepped into the world of high technology with their Secure USB drive/knife combo.  You can get yours for just $150.00.

If you choked on that price tag, wait until you hear the specifics.  This USB drive stores up to 32GB of your personal or professional data securely with its own encryption software.  In addition, the device sports a built-in thumbprint scanner and thermal sensor.  That’s right, you need to verify your thumbprint before you can access you files.  That’s stepping into the realm of Daniel Craig and I like it.

But that’s not all.  The Victorinox Secure is also a fully functional knife—would the Swiss have it any other way?  It also has a built-in ultra-bright LED flashlight and a class II laser pointer! That $150.00 price tag isn’t looking so bad now, is it?  You can bet if they reboot the MacGyver franchise, he’s going to have on e of these next generation Swiss Army knives in his pocket.  The only problem I can foresee with this device is that it’s not ever going to pass TSB checkpoints at the airport.
