Available today are a couple G1 Bandicoot variants that I have done in Timascus. I call these "variants" because they are and handground and thus the dimensions are not the same as the waterjet bandicoots.

These are made from Timascus and are 100% handmade by me, no waterjet. They are heat anodized and are all different. They have a nice feel and "charm" to them thanks to the handmade factor. I'm sure that most of you guys know that this material is not cheap, especially at this thickness. All of these have been neatly engraved "JW 2014" as a makers mark. These are nice, big chunks of Timascus!

These all have nice swedges on them which both reduce the already light weight and give a little more functionality to the pry bars. The small corners, although not "sharpened" are handy for opening packages. The small forward hole provides traction while using the pry bar. The hole chamfer has NOT been re hit post anodize to maximize the beauty of the Timascus. All of these are run over a medium scotchbrite belt to soften the edges before they are anodized. And of course the bottle opener is always handy!

My current go to for Timascus anodizing is the "fade" These both feature fade anodizing. One from the pry end back. The other from bottom to top.

These all ship with a Nite-Ize S-Biner so they can easily be attached to a set of keys. It's hard to do these justice with pictures!!


Shipping (Please Read)
Because of the size of these tools they can ship standard post air mail. This means it saves you money but has NO TRACKING OR INSURANCE. The buyer agrees that I am not liable for loss or damage once the tool has shipped. For an additional $15, these can ship with both insurance and a tracking number. $15 is the cheapest option Canada Post offers for shipping that gives you insurance and tracking.


PRICE : sOLD Each
The price includes the tool, a 0.5 NiteIze S-biner, standard shipping, stickers.


Thanks guys,

These are really nifty. Do you have any plans on making the G2 in timascus?

No, The G2's are water jet so that I can have the hex drives / jimping on them. I would have to get a piece of Timascus so big that costs $600+ to justify the cost of getting them cut out. Just don't think its gonna happen.
 
Ah, understood. Thank you. Still interested in one of these G1, but have to double check some incoming bills first and hope one is still left.
