true story! - joltjake, on 11/13/2007, -7/+110Too bad Mitnick didn't have this while serving his 5 years in prison.
- restlessdesign, on 10/10/2007, -16/+112Ooops! You're not original:

Had to. - kerpau, on 10/10/2007, -5/+48More metal business cards - http://www.metalcards.com/gallery/cards/index.html. Pricey!
- PathDaemon, on 10/10/2007, -2/+44If you have to have this explained to you, you don't need Kevin Mitnick's business card.
- aquadoctorbob, on 11/13/2007, -1/+38It's a good thing they blacked out the contact information instead of just blurring it. Somebody might have figured out his e-mail address or something.
oh wait - Tourney3p0, on 10/10/2007, -5/+40You're trying way too hard.
- rharms, on 10/10/2007, -1/+32Woz's card is metal.
http://www.tuaw.com/2006/10/03/the-wozs-business-card/ - Urusai, on 10/10/2007, -1/+30Tell us the one where you clipped a coupon for detergent but didn't redeem it before the expiration and then you threw it away! Ooh, ooh!
- ..eD, on 10/10/2007, -1/+30He would not hack your computer. He would call you on the phone and jedi-mind trick you into telling him your user name and password.
- murty, on 10/10/2007, -0/+27There is nothing to get... I bought a kitchen spatula, there was a metal business card with it. So i put it in my wallet for a while, then i threw it away cos it was useless.
- therightclique, on 10/10/2007, -3/+27seriously. shut the ***** up. you're not awesome. you never will be. stop talking like you are.
- mhaisley, on 11/13/2007, -2/+26Nice, but isn't his business card technically illegal to posses in many states?
- copywriteink, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25Must be hard to fly home after meeting him.
- SystmBetatester, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25could his email be kmitnick@*.com?
- drgmdp, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23you do it with your bare hands, right mr. lock breaker?
- djpants428, on 10/10/2007, -2/+22dude, if Woz doesn't deserve his own logo, I don't know who does. Between Jobs, Woz, and Gates, they pretty much made the home computer business what it is today. Respect..
- ryllharu, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20"Nice color."
"That's 'Bone'." - opiestana, on 10/10/2007, -10/+28Dont say that without supplying a pic.
- Dhalgren, on 10/10/2007, -4/+22Woz has a plastic (I think?) card that is sharp on one edge that he uses to cut steaks on airplanes...
- bobcrotch, on 10/10/2007, -7/+24The goofy ***** has his own logo, wow.
- trogdoor, on 10/10/2007, -0/+16Though they did a smudge rather than a normal blur, which makes it a little harder.
- djpants428, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15I pick locks with my tongue, is that hard core enough for you?
- hmemcpy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14Steaks on a plane?
- Roger, on 10/10/2007, -2/+16I love the way you think
- cruzlee, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14A few years ago I used to earn my living by selling computers in a small store. Mostly we would give people a few euro's of on the final calculation, or give them some cd's.
One time I calculated some guy's pc to cost 1329. The instant he saw that figure he asked me if I would make it 8 euro's more expensive for him. He said he would frame the invoice.... 8) - nayr, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15He wasn't a hacker, he was a social engineer, or a con man specialized in technology.
- whofarted, on 10/10/2007, -5/+18I have to return some videotapes.
- zzz@tkz, on 10/10/2007, -6/+19ORLY?
- yergi, on 11/13/2007, -0/+12Old enough that 2 different people have handed me some variant of this business card over the years. It was only cool the first time.
- cthulhukb, on 10/10/2007, -4/+16I guess the people digging you down have not seen American Psycho, but you have my digg for the reference.
- HelplessSEAL, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Great, cept there isn't a tension wrench, I wouldn't say it's impossible though
- digitalSaint, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10learn to read
- mark1372, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11Despite the poor job of smudging, It's still pretty much entirely readable.
- saggygrandma, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Does all caps count as content?
- gcnaddict, on 10/10/2007, -3/+11I wonder why his email was censored out though. I mean isn't kmitnick@mitnicksecurity.com his business email? ...***** I'm going to get my ass handed to me now.
- brombomb, on 10/10/2007, -3/+11It says in the fliker that he asked for permission. Still not original that and melvins is like 5 years old
- Cogboy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7These are made by a process called chemical milling, first an image is printed on each side with acid resistant ink, (slightly different on each side) then the exposed part of the metal is etched out with acid. If the same part is exposed on both sides you get a hole, if its only one side then you just have a recess going halfway through.
The same process is used to make circuit boards and some RF sheilds, all kinds of stuff really. not to mention a similar process is used to build microchips.
This is what i do for a job :)

Take a look around the site, there is more information and some good photos. - badjoke, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7They are sharp, knife-like devices though.
- Bastian227, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9Only if you mean locks on chastity belts.
- thehumancow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7And the type is something called "Cilian Rail."
- Bob042, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7I would imagine that you bend the bottom tool to make it the tension wrench.
- JamesWilson, on 10/10/2007, -4/+11Doesn't Woz have something similar?
- nayr, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8You could cut steaks on an airplane!
- Firehed, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7I doubt it could actually function as a lockpick - almost certainly too flimsy. It's just really damn good marketing.
- izzybr, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Uhh...you know he isn't really famous for lock-picking right?
