What is wrong with the Calyx-eye?

    The Calyx eye (AKA "French Spring eye" or "self threading needle") was invented in
    1850. It has the opening located at the end of the eye portion of the needle.

    This opening in the end of the needle was intended to allow you to thread it. It is created
    by splitting the bridge at the top, which creates rough edges that can shred your thread
    when threading it.

    The original Calyx eye needles only have one eye opening. The two eyes, as seen in the
    picture to the left, is created by putting a bridge under the top eye to give it the
    "spring" to keep it shut when it is threaded.

    The bottom eye is actually not an eye at all, it is a result of putting that bridge in.
    Even with the bridge, the threads come back out when sewing if you tug much at all.
