In
Celebration of the
Season...
Morse
Express has commissioned its eigth annual
Christmas Key.
Our 2008 Christmas Key, a precision miniature key
made by GHD Keys, incorporating traditional Japanese craftsmanship
along with GHD's impeccable engineering.
In keeping with GHD's larger keys, the Christmas Key uses miniature
ball bearings at the trunnion, a machined ceramic insert under the
lower contact to absorb vibration, and perfect balance. The contacts
are hard-silver and the mechanical parts have a deep polished chrome
finish.
The oval base is heavy ebony selected for warmth and grain.
The dogwood knobs for the Christmas Key were made in a
Kokeshi doll factory, and the doll
shown above is an "artist original" by master dollmaker Akira Suzuki.
Like Suzuki, GHD Key's Toshihiko Ujiie combines modern and
traditional techniques to produce a miniature key that will
be equally at
home in the
radio shack, in the field, or decorating a Christmas tree.
The 2008 key measures 2" by 1" at the base and
weighs 4-1/4 ounces. Each key has a label with “Christmas 2008” and the
key’s unique serial number. The Christmas key will
add something special to straight key operations through the Holiday
season and Straight Key Night.
This is a LIMITED
EDITION
of 150 keys.
The Morse Express 2007
Christmas Key is $89.95 (plus
s/h) and is available exclusively from Morse Express.
We expect to begin shipping the 2008 Christmas Key around the
end of October. Orders received before then will secure a
previous serial number, but of course your card
will not be charged until we ship your key.
Click on the "Add to Shopping
Cart" link below to start
the ordering process by opening a shopping cart. From there

A
word about the serial numbers... if you bought our 2007 Christmas
key last year, then the same serial number will be held for you this
year, until approximately the middle of November. But the
exact
date will depend on how quickly we sell out of "unallocated"
numbers, so if the number is important to you please order sooner
rather than later.
Thank
you very
much for your order, and I hope our little Christmas key brings a
little
extra joy to the holiday season for you!
