I've decided to make a limited number of my custom black jacks available. These are fascinating tools of yesteryear that are still very relevant.

This particular model has an overall length of 11" and weighs 11.125 ounces. The handle is an 8 plait and the head is a simple grafted pattern. There are two turk's head knots and a polymer end cap. It is constructed using the same nylon lace that I use on my Japanese knives.

The core is constructed from steel cable, which I generally find preferable to a spring. It has just enough flex to have a dead blow effect, but isn't floppy like some examples.

The head is comprised of stainless steel and lead. The lead is cast around the cable.

The head and the turk's head knots have been treated with epoxy to ensure that it never unravels. The shaft remains untreated to ensure that the flexibility is not impeded.

This is a nice example of a modern blackjack that hits hard!

Sold! Thanks Guys!

It actually just sold.

However, I could make another if you would still like one.
