DLC WildCards

These came out so nice I'm going to have to keep one for myself. They are a beautiful matte black with black lanyards...very sharp both in looks and in edge. ;) I have a limited number so am keeping it at one per customer. They are $90 plus shipping...this batch sold out.

Sold Out, thanks!

G3 Titanium Prybabies

Happy Post Turkey Day! Hope everyone had a good day and are on the road to gastric recovery. :)

I finished a batch of the G3 Prybabies this morning. The green G2s were so popular that I thought I'd do some of the G3s in green as well. The G3s are not a limited edition although I do not have a whole lot of them this time around. Another batch will probably happen at some point in the winter. At any rate, these are running $70 each plus shipping.

Sold Out, thanks folks!

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

I certainly have a LOT to be thankful for this year. I want to thank everyone who has helped me along the way and bought and enjoyed my little tools and knives. I really do appreciate it.

I hope everyone is having a great Thanksgiving! Have a good time today and don't eat too much turkey. :)

Limited Edition: G2 Tibabies

Hey Ya'll,

I have some stonewashed G2 Titanium Prybabies that I have anodized a nice green. This is a Limited Edition of 42 pieces and I won't be making them again. These were cut from some thick .160 (5/32) ti sheet which is getting very hard to find these days...they are substantial little tools. Same exact size as a standard Atwood Gasbaby but without the wrench cutouts. Price on them will be $70 plus shipping.

Sold Out! Thanks very much folks!

Short Run: DLC Flat Ti Gasbabies

I have just a handful of these available but too many to do a lottery. They are flat titanium Gasbabies that I have blasted and then DLC coated. Great little wallet pieces.

Sold Out, thanks.

In Grinding Mode

Just wanted to pass along an update. I'll be done with grinding and cleanup of all the extended G3 Prybabies this morning including both the metric and American versions. Unfortunately the heat treater is closed all week next week so it will take some time to get these through the last steps. However, I have some other stuff to grind as well and so I'll have a really big batch of stuff to send to them by the end of next week. Will be lots of little things for December...

I'll get back to the sheaths in a few days as well, just as soon as this grinding session is out of the way. Also, the DLC stuff should be back by next week at the latest so there will be a bunch more of those pieces coming as well as the titanium Prybabies which should be back from tumbling any day now. So stay tuned for a mix of general releases and lotteries coming up in a few days.

DLC Whistle Lottery

So, moving right along. ;) How about this DLC coated, high voltage patterned, one of a kind stainless steel whistle? This piece is quite unique and is one of the very few Atwood whistles with no knurling that have ever been made. There is no name stamp. Pretty neat stuff and it took that patterning rather nicely, shows up better in person than my picture conveys.

Anyway, for those not following sports, the New England Patriots will be playing the NY Jets tonight. The drawing will be at halftime, whenever that is. Hey it's a football game! :D Price on the piece is $70 shipped in US, add $5 for international.

Lottery is over. Pats aren't doing so well but maybe they'll rally.

Winner is #44 cpcc3830. Thanks folks!

Metric Prybaby Sneak Peek

Here's a little sneak peek at the upcoming metric G3 Prybaby®. I have two versions, one SAE and one metric. The SAE version has the usual round lanyard hole and the metric has a distinctive "M" shaped lanyard hole for quick and definitive identification. :)

I just started grinding these yesterday so it will be at least two weeks or so before they are completed. But the good news is they are finally in the works....total length on these is 3.5" so they are a bit longer than a regular Prybaby®. I may also do a shorter metric version up the road without screwdriver end. Metric sizes 6,8,10,12,14,16mm. SAE sizes 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16.

Thank you folks for the interest. I will have more coming up this week and a general release of some sort pretty soon as well.

I have just three of these Micro Bug Out Blades with DLC coating and OD green cord wrap. These are the very last of the Micro Bug Out Blades and as of now I have no plans to make more. They are made of the great Crucible tool steel CPM 3V so they are incredibly tough and hold a terrific edge. Each will come with kydex sheath and removable teklok belt clip. Price is $180 plus shipping.

Lottery is over!

Working on WildCards

Howdy folks! Thought I should put out an update...

I'm currently working on the WildCard mini credit card knives. These are in the final stages of sharpening and packaging and the first wave will be going up for sale tomorrow. Here's the product card details on them:

"Made of CPM S30V steel just under 1/8" thick, this mini credit card tool features 6 SAE wrench sizes: ¼, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16, ½ and 9/16. Also includes 5 metric wrench sizes: 6, 8, 10, 12 and 14mm. Bottle opener doubles as a 5/16 wrench. A ¼” hex opening and screwdriver tip is also included as well as a small cutting edge. Be mindful of the cutting edge and use extreme caution when using the tool functions!"

These little tools are designed to be carried in a card slot in your wallet. For this reason I will not be making sheaths for them as your wallet acts as the sheath. However, I will apply a small piece of extra thick electrical tape over the cutting edge to protect your wallet from incidental slices and to provide a small amount of protection when lightly handling the tool. Electrical tape is a simple solution, leaves minimal residue and is easily replaceable by the user. At the same time it gives reasonably quick access to a cutting edge and it is reusable. If it gets worn out just put 3-4 layers of common electrical tape over the edge and trim excess with a blade.

Obviously, this is designed to be a last ditch piece and is not supposed to replace a Craftsman tool chest. :) Please be very careful if you go to use the wrench features as the tape will not provide significant protection against cuts if direct pressure is applied to the edge.

This new design is a nice update to my previous credit card knife designs....before anyone asks, I will NOT be making any more of the little S30v Micro Card knives or the full sized card knives that I produced in years past.

30 dovk802 termite
41 helvick
139 tritium termite
141 ironman jungle

Thanks folks! I will have more stuff coming up tomorrow or the next day. Also, probably end of next week will have the new WildCard credit card knives at the finishing up stage. There are a lot of them currently at heat treat and there will be an open sale once I get them back and do the sharpening.

Patterned Ti FunnyBones

Hi Folks,

Got a few more goodies done today. These are Titanium FunnyBones that have been DLC coated and patterned for a high contrast effect. I'm really happy with the way these came out and we will be seeing more of this type of thing in the future I'm sure. The Termites were my favorites so I made more of them.

Anyway, I have five in the Termite pattern, two in the Jungle pattern and one in the Chainlink pattern, eight pieces total. The way it will work is, after the lottery is over I will send out emails to the winners. The first person to get back to me gets first choice and the second gets second choice, etc. This way we don't have a situation where someone takes hours to get back to me with their pattern choice and holds up the process.

Price on these will be $85 plus $6 shipping for US customers, $12 shipping for international customers.

Lottery is ended!
