Anyone have a source for money clip blanks? Preferably titanium, but stainless is fine, too. Have lots of little bits and piece of material and cut-offs that I'd like to turn into something useful. Thanks in advance! Or, if you have Ti sheet and want to make them, email me a price quote. I'd want small-ish ones, like an inch wide...

Hi Chiro. Rio Grande has what you're asking for, if you want SS. They're about .50 cents each, packs of a dozen I think.
 
Thanks! I'll check it out. Never thought of looking at jewelry supply. Hopefully in April if I make it to the Novi knife show I can get some Ti and just bend them up myself...
 
It's harder to make a nice one than you think. I've tried and they are a total pain in the ass. Even with the proper fixturing and bending tools you still have issues with marks and such. I made a few today actually out of some thick kydex and they weren't much easier.
 
Well, I found some SS ones at Rings n' Things, too (somewhere online). They have 3/4" wide ones for $1 each and the 1" wide ones are just a bit more. You can order them right online. The Rio Grande company that someone mentioned makes you buy their cataog for $10 (but also includes a $10 gift certificate with the catalog for your first order, so I guess you break even if you order from them). If the King of Cool Keychain Gadgets says they're a pain in the ass to make, then that's all I need to make me want to buy them! :D I wish I could get them in Ti, though.
 
Mr. Chiro, Go ahead and get the catalog, if you make knives you need it. There are a lot stuff in it that will help you. Gib
