Oh yeah, I'm getting one of these for my "heathen" cousins for Christmas!

By the way, doesn't the, uh, tube for the penis seem a little, I don't know, narrow?

Oops, nevermind. Not for adults, yet.

OK, stupid question time: Why? If you've got the foreskin God gave you, why remove it?

Because you made a covenant with God? That's one reason, anyway.

The SmartKlamp® has been designed using the latest plastic technology.

Now, that's high tech!

Later, it occurred to me...What if you weren't circumcised at birth and convert to Judaism as a grown man. Then you might find one of these useful. I bet that's a biiiiiig potential market.

All kidding aside, I take it these are really meant for newborn boys -- are there a lot of at-home births these days?

My wife is an apprentice homebirth midwife in a state where its not that common. Still, there are 4 midwives needed to cover all of the births for their practice alone. There are many other midwives throughout the state who attend births at home. Check out The Midwives Alliance of North America for more info. That said, circumcision is rarely chosen by the parents of homeborn boys.

I'd hate to cock up a circumcision.

I suggest you do not click on the "how does it work" link.

I wonder if they rent out tester units.
