Title: Spikes Are What I've Been Up Too
Post by: Ashley on April 20, 2017, 04:38:43 AM
Here is some of the recent items to be flowing from my workshop. Spikes, beads, and kubotans so far. I have tritium lanterns in the works. :)

First, is it just me or do you really appear sporadically to spread a new unusual trend around here and then magically disappear for a while?

Second those look cool. What are they for besides stabbing (if they even are intended for that)

Those are some damn fine fancy tent pegs you've got there! I want some, don't know what for, but I do. :cheers:  :D

Ps: Also, I am not quite sure that cops around these parts would be all that happy to see me lugging these around with me.  :ahhh

Pss: But still,  :gimme:.  :rofl:

I just might. :D

They are for tightening knots mainly and the kubatons are for smacking someone with. I don't encourage violence. :ashley:

Carry a piece of paracord and explain it's a knot tightening tool. I sent one to a guy in the U.K. and it arrived. I just marked it as a knot tightening tool which is what it is. Here is what I sent him.

After the 50 shades books and movies, I think it is a lot better to say they are for stabbing people. At least around here

If I had to be stabbed I would definitely choose to be stabbed with one of these...  :D

Because they would cause a puncture wound with a minimum of trauma? :think:  :P
(As compared to say... a bowie knife)

I was thinking more along the lines: If you have to go you might as well go in style...  :drink:

Unusual request but I aim to please. Customer ask for a spike with a rough step down layer look. She was pretty excited with the results. It's really neat looking if I do say so myself.
