The Morse Express Christmas Key is a fully operational miniature key, hand machined from solid brass and plated with 18 carat gold.  It measures 2-9/16" by 1-5/16" at the base and weighs a surprising eight ounces.

The 2004 Christmas Key is a miniaturized replica of a 19th century camelback  key.  All of the usual adjustments (trunnion bearing tension, lever spring tension, and contact spacing) are available by means of gold plated screws with matching lockouts, and the indented knob is very comfortable to use.  In true camelback style, the camelback lever is a cantilever, with contacts at the rear of the key for enhanced leverage, increased mass, and more precision in operation. The lever spring adjustment is also a throwback to the 19th century, with an expansion spring held in place by a pin on the bottom of the key.
