74 a piece for the Cryptosteel Capsule seems like overkill to me. I suppose you're paying for the waterproof/fireproof aspects, but as someone who already has a weatherproof safe, that seems pricey for a glorified paper wallet.

It looks pretty snazzy, though. I'll give it that.

This is probably the reason why he went to the top shelf version, if you could just use a safe, then you could just have written it in plastic and stored it there, but there is still the risk that if anything happens to you, that child you wish to gift might not have access to your fireproof and fireproof safe and they would end up losing the funds anyways.

Non-bitcoiners may not be able to fully appreciate a piece of paper with few words written on it, and may easily lose it within few years, so I wanted something that looked cool and that they would keep safe as if it was regular jewellery.

I think this summaries the whole thing, many things might change in 18 years, you might not be alive, your house could be submerged in water and you could lose access to your safe but a steel Jewelry is probably the best bet and they could even wear it while growing up without it losing it's quality. Anyways welcome back to the forum.
