F&P used to sell them in a tin, but i am not seeing them on their website now. I have some long ones, not flowerhead, from them that were in a tin, and they're viciously sharp. In fact, DH was vacuuming one day and kept getting poked in the leg, so he finally discovered that a pin was sticking out through the vacuum hose. Given how thin and bendy they are, the point must have been sharp indeed.
