      Seriously had no idea what YKK was until the Pete & Bad lyric from Gangster Shit.

      It’s rude to use uncommon abbreviations without defining them at least once.

        Not OP, but this wiki article should help: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YKK It’s the world’s largest zipper manufacturer. They officially changed their name to YKK Group so it’s not even an abbreviation anymore.

        It’s a common abbreviation. YKK owns the majority of the zipper market.

          IIRC, they even had their own custom-made office computers, running their own internally developed operating system and software, during the 80s. Not sure if that was standard practice for Japanese zaibatsu at the time or just a YKK idiosyncrasy.

    Does the zipper handle fold over to the other side in reverse mode?
