good idea

It works great. I have had mine for a few years already. Professors don't like when I turn in papers without staples, but it's so damn cool. It doesn't hold together too many sheets and sometimes it messes up.

Believe it or not, the ingenious new Staple Free Stapler uses absolutely no staples at all. Just place your collection of papers that need to be stapled together (up to 5 pages) into the Staple Free Stapler, push down and it cuts a little flap in the corner, folds the flap back and tucks it into a tiny slit. No staples necessary means never running out of staples again, never injuring or stapling yourself to things and it's more eco-friendly. Cool little office gadget. (via The Green Head)

I don't want to even think about how this device cuts, weaves and binds up to 5 pieces of paper together with out a metal staple. Just thinking of all those third world children stuffed into a device to weave paper together for the rest of their lives is mortifying. Damn you Corporate America; Damn you! (via hipcheq)

No more running out of staples at just the wrong moment. Genius!

I recently discovered that if every office worker used one less staple a day for a year, we'd save approx. 120 Tons of steel! This is equivalent in weight to about 25 SUV's. This stapless stapler crimps paper together and acts as a great solution for staple saving. The stapler can cinch together up to 5 or 6 pages. They come in lots of great colors as well.

Although it sounds like an oxymoron, a staple-free stapler is a brilliant idea.

Use less staples. Better still, go staple-less. Reduce the world's steel usage.
