Competitiveness

    When you release the lock it flies back into the main body with a satisfying sound

    The belt clip is so encapsulated that the tape cant be removed without lots of cutting

    Its a little thicker than i expected 1 116 not counting the clip even though the tape is only 12 wide and the case is not quite as bright a red as the photo suggests
