butterfly knife key

any of you guys/gals have a butterfly knife key for your maxima? My friend got one for his truck and it looks kinda cool. They have one for Nissans but not for all vehicles. they have one on ebay:

i have one for my accord. it looks ok, but there is no key ring to hook it up to, so i lose it alot, plus i have to play with it a little just to start my engine, b/c the key is long and the way the place i brought it to cut the key, it can slide in further than it should, but it does look kinda cool at times, but i think i wasted my money on it......

i think i go it off ebay for like 12 dollars w/o shipping.... i seen the ones that say they work with nissans, but since i already had one for the accord, i didn't feel like it was worth it for the maxima, b/c i'd probably lose the key or mix them up.........

You know what I'd like to have? A key that folds into the its plastic head like VW's. That way it won't tear up the insides of your pocket, and won't poke your thigh at times. No one seem to be making those, though...

The butterfly knife key doesn't tear up the insides of your pockets, but it would be cool if we could get a flip out key like a VW. But those keys are very thick b/c it has the remote on the key also. which our cars don't have, so it'd just be a huge peice of plastic just for a flip out key......

hmm...you think it's possible to drill a hole thru that knife key since it doesn't have a key ring hole?

Just saw the NISMO key for the first time today on Freshalloy's online store. They wanted like $45 I think.

Yeah, those Nismo and GTR keys are extremely rare. On eBay, I remember them going to like $80 once. It'd be cool to have, but it's definitely not worth that much to me.
