DALLAS (Business Wire EON/PRWEB ) November 21, 2008 --
Engineered to grip sixty folded bills, or an equivalent thickness
of cash and plastic, the Duck
BillTM
Money Clip is an affordable gift ($36, or $46 with
engraving) that gives a good financial bite. As a large
capacity money clip, it is designed to be a wallet alternative.
New as of today, shoppers can order unique, free-hand
engraving of up to twenty-four characters for personalized gifts.
Money Clip Woes:
“Stuffed full a few times, many money clips can never again grip a
few slim bills, and carrying two holders, one for cash and one for
credit cards, was an obvious problem,” said Tony Cornett, president and
chief designer of Duck Bill Design. “Many money clips are more
non-functional jewelry than a solution to a daily design problem.”
“After years of kitchen-table conversations, watching how people
carry their dough, and giving away not-so-pretty prototypes to ‘guinea
pigs’ who agreed to tell me if it worked, I created the large capacity
metal money clip I carry today,” explained Cornett, a product-design and
development expert inspired
by friends to improve money clip functionality. “It’s
cool, simple and actually works.”
A Money Clip That Actually Works:
Currency wrapped around plastic, no moving parts and
spring-tension steel add up to a gift that guarantees a great money clip
experience good enough to replace any wallet.
The Duck Bill Money Clip features:
-
Quad Bend BiteTM for a
pinch that keeps holding
-
Spring tension steel that snaps back to original form
-
Matte or polished finish options
-
Optional engraving – New, for personalized gifts
-
Embossed steel gift box

Free shipping in the US via first-class mail
Gripping up to sixty folded bills, or an equivalent thickness of
“stuff” such as six credit cards, one driver’s license and twenty folded
bills, the Duck Bill Money Clip can replace a wallet for most men.
"The Duck Bill name came together when I was looking at a
prototype,” said Cornett. “It was a classic Eureka moment. Hey, it looks
like a duck’s bill – nostrils, an upturned upper bill – and that was it!"
The free-hand engraving option for customers to order more
personalized gifts came out of a chance encounter when Cornett was
shopping at a store during one of Ken Brown’s engraving events. Cornett
pulled out his money clip, master-engraver Brown engraved it on the
spot, and so it began.
Quack it up on the Duck Pond Blog:
The Duck
Pond Blog invites photos, video and conversation about the Duck Bill
Money Clip user experience. Chief-designer Cornett welcomes input about
the original design and future ones. “Drop in, paddle around and quack
it up,” says Cornett. “If you MacGyver some amazing situation, or craft
a modification unique to you, we want to hear about it and see it here.
If you’re really a wallet person and received it as a gift, tell us if
it does or doesn’t work for you.”
