Blade Case Views
This one is pretty slick, with more of the blade covered by the case than a conventional pizza cutter a bonus you can get more leverage on it because of the different design. The blade snaps out for cleaning, so I suppose you could keep the blade separate in a case, if you were worried about getting cut.This is the one Alton Brown uses, and if there was ever someone to trust about which kitchen gadgets to but, it 's him.
The Blade comes to us from Tiger Design in korea and it's a CNC machined aluminum bumper case for the iPhone 4 unlike any other case you've seen before. The Blade has the most futuristic like weaponry look to it that I've seen out of a lot of cases out there. It's one of those cases that will make others wow at first glance. Not only does the Blade look pretty damn awesome but it feels like you're holding some Transformer's iPhone 4. Read more to find out how the Blade performs in the full review after the cut!
Out of the box you get the Blade aluminum bumper case and a pack of accessories which you will need to use in order to setup your Blade for use with your iPhone 4. First of all Tiger Design includes various foam pads that you need to place smartly around the insides of the Blade bumper case so that your iPhone 4 does not get in contact with the actual aluminum construction. I used almost all the foam pads and placed them at each corner, top, bottom and both sides so that my iPhone 4 will stay scratch free and also will get the most shock protection available should I accidentally drop it on the ground. You also get a small multi-purpose screwdriver, extra screws and three aluminum buttons.
I'm not so sure of how much drop protection the Blade offers but it's definitely a big plus having those foam pads inside. Not many companies give you a good amount of padding inside their aluminum cases and Tiger Design really thought out the Blade thru well. I'm now fully protected on the inside from any metal to metal contact with my iPhone 4 except for the top and bottom sides of the iPhone 4's metal band, however, I did not see any issues with the way the Blade works and installs around the iPhone 4 so there is no need to worry about that. The way the Blade secures around the iPhone 4 is by the aluminum frame which does not contact the glass of the iPhone 4 and is secured by four screws.
