It was worth it, though. Awesome puzzle. www.audiocubes.com also has the very important Gun O'Clock, an alarm clock you shoot. Instant awesome.

Ideally he should have put it down on the desk. The bit about the knife wasn't when he was cutting; rather, it was the way he held it in his hand when he was trying to open the box.

That's the most important (and exciting) part. What I most appreciated was the full minute he filmed of removing the cube from its box. That's the most important (and exciting) part.

He wasn't slicing the entire box apart with it, although it did look like it at times. That cube is ridiculous, I don't even know how I'd begin to start solving it. You can't distinguish between pieces from two different faces while it's mixed up. I agree with snarf, he used the knife rather carefully, just to cut the pieces of tape on the top of the box.

I don't get the weird responses to the fact that he uses a knife to open this box? This kind of stuff is ALWAYS packed in such an annoying way. Compared to how I would have gone about it I'd say he's very very easy on the knife. I would have torn that silly box to shreds ... but thats just me.

Took me several weeks of steadily working at it. Then I bought a book that told he how to do it. I got down to about 2 minutes. Egads! What's with that knife? Keep that boy out of the kitchen.

Nobody I know has ever solved it, but they keep buying a new one every few years. I never get the appeal of Rubik's cube.
