Stapleless Staplers are a more efficient way to bind paper. The models available today are designed for small binding tasks (5-7 pages max).
The stapler seen above is available for about $21 from Amazon. Other models are be seen here.
This model is popular in Japan. It is available from the Japanese importer JBox for $13.50.
They also have a sculpturesque model available for $34.50.
Older models of stapleless staplers or “paper fasteners”, like the one above, could bind many more pages but no longer seem to be available. Let us know if you have seen these for sale.
oh holy night
Innocuous and Efficien…
Manufactum makes a great looking (but somewhat exhorbitantly priced) staple-less stapler available on their website http://www.manufactum.com for 77 Euros
I have a paper fastener very similar the bottom picture.
I bought it with other stuff at a rummage sale
The only mark is on one side says, Japan patented.
It works, I put a small piece of tape over the folded tabs
