X-SEED

Just what I expected. Nicely packaged, good value, good quality.

All prefect!!!

If you’re in search of an extremely well made and very secure method of storing your passwords - especially crypto wallet passwords - look no further. I’ve not heard of this name brand and I have a feeling it is just a Chinese company but it is still a well made product regardless. There are a few different totes of passwords storage devices sold by this company but this review is for the no frills standard XSEED product.Within the packaging you get 2 thick stainless steel cards for punching (no metal punches come in the standard set), 2 thick but strong aluminum card for etching, a very sharp etching “pen”, and a small storage wallet of sorts. Etching into aluminum with the pen isn’t the easiest thing to do especially with curves such as with letters “C” or especially “S”! It comes out sport of like chicken scratch using the pen. I did have some luck going very very gently over curved letters and then going back over the curves multiple times each pass slightly heavier than the last. It still doesn’t come out smooth and at this price point you’re much better off spending a bit more money with the same company and buying their XSEED Plus product that comes with steel letter punches. I own a Dremel tool and tried to use that to etch letters but the tool kept squirming away from me and wasn’t much more successful than the etching pen.The major advantage of a product like this is that once your passwords are stored they are now impervious to cold, heat, water, fire, and other disasters, and keep your passwords off your computer and therefor resistant to hackers. Of course keeping passwords like this make it susceptible to loss or theft but you should just lock this away in a secure safe and only get it out when you need it.This product is well made and very secure. The aluminum cards are thin but very strong. Again, my recommendation is to spend a few extra dollars and buy the set with the punches for a much better end result. There is nothing inherently wrong with this product but as there are better products out there I’m going to give four stars.

FAST SHIPPINGEXCELLENT PRODUCTI appreciate the XSEED series for its SIZE, VALUE, DESIGN, FUNCTIONALITY and its STURDY comprehensive PROTECTION of MY SEED PHRASES by engraving and stamping options. I absolutely love this SEED WALLET for its resilience with providing ME PEACE of mind against potential physical threats…

Dremel type rotary tool worked best from scribing on either plate.

I've only recently gotten into crypto currency & this is a very nice option for a simple need. This secure wallet comes with two aluminum and two stainless steel plates and an etching tool. Each plate is double sided and can hold either two 12 word phrases or one 24 word phrase (or any other combination less than 24) The aluminum wallets can be etched with the tool. The stainless steel plates will need to be either stamped or engraved. Tamper evident stickers are included to seal the plates together if desired. I wish they would have had holes drilled through in order to lock them as well, but this should suffice.

These cards are a great idea, however with the tools provided to carve in the code, it is very hard to do and a long process. The stamps would be the best way to go and plan to get a set and complete it when I get a chance.

I was excited to upgrade from my paper secure keys to this fire-proof and waterproof seed card. It is probably exactly what it says it is but that being said, I think it's overpriced. It's not like this comes with any bitcoin or anything. It comes with the two different types of cards- one that's clearly a strong metal (steel I think) and one they claim is aluminum, which feels almost like a hard plastic. They say that you can only use the "pen" on the aluminum, but I was able to scrap a legible word on both.My disappointment came when I figured I couldn't laser etch these cards with my laser etcher. Note: they do not say you can do this but I figured it was possible and there's a setting for my etcher on steel. This could be entirely user error and I don't count that against SecuX. The fact that they recommend a metal letter stamper as a way to imprint the seed codes onto the steel card but don't offer any way to do that is kind of annoying. I guess they're not going to give you a set of stamp letters, but the ped doesn't really work well on it.
