Good! Pleasantly Satisfied.

I'm very pleased. I was concerned due to the price. This is put together well and feels great in hand. No imperfections. I was afraid it would be some poorly cut balsa wood thing.

I'd recommend it to others. I'm intending on finding a nice pouch for it.

EDIT- I've just looked at some of the other items this company makes. They make some neat stuff, I'd recommend taking a look too.

Crazy fun for a puzzle kid or grandpa with nothing but time.

I liked the quality. But the fun you can have with two or three of these is the realm of my thought. Send your friend with one of these a simple message...make them think of a name or event in the message to fill in from your experiences. Then send them a partial key for them to cipher the corr3ct code and then include your code to decipher. A fun game to share thoughtful thoughts...or. War messages using the date to incript further. It's a fun toy for a crazy kid...buy two.

I love this cipher. Great quality and a piece of art by itself. Hours of great fun cracking the messages it comes with. Took me about 11 hours to crack the secret messages it came with. I'll be getting a few more for the office and for friends and family.

Very nice. Conversation piece to keep on desk at work. Reminds me of some training I had while in the U.S. Military. Constructed very well, letters, digits and lines very clearly engraved. One small thing to make it even better would be to place a wing nut and lock washer on the shaft to keep the discs aligned,
