Background

• Introduced in 2000 by LKL Innovations, Ltd. Production discontinued a short while later.

Off The Record

• Despite the plastic in its construction, the ScrewBall is surprising well built. It is an altogether satisfying little tool. Perhaps its primary shortcoming is the ball itself, which creates a somewhat uncomfortable lump in one's pocket.
