You are bidding on a brand new design key ring that has a Compact Knife. This key chain has small knife that stores away inside the key chain until it is needed. It also has a small bolster that protects your hand as well. This item will come with instructions as to how to reveal and use the knife feature. The Key Ring measures 3” long when closed (not including the ring) and is only 5/8” in diameter. It features a quality stainless steel blade which is stored safely in the handle when not in use. This blade is shipped very sharp and should be used with care!

This particular item was made from a beautiful piece of Deer Antler. This particular item was made from a beautiful piece of Deer Antler. Antler takes a great finish and polishes very well, although the it is very hard and brittle, making it one of the most difficult materials to turn and finish. I am now using the Super Glue (CA Glue) finish for all of my Key Chains. This type of finish is extremely durable and will help keep your key chain safe from water, oil and the rigors of daily use. It takes a little longer to use this finishing method, and costs a little more as well. However the finish you have on the item when completed, is very similar to an acrylic, and will last the life of the item with no problems.

I have been a woodworker for over 20 years, making everything from complete custom cabinetry, to bowls, boxes, and pens on the lathe.  However, due to health issues, I now only turn projects on the lathe in order to give myself something to do for the few hours a day I can stand. When you see pens which have same name, or look the exact same, the chances are that they obtain their kits from the same sources that I use. Since I do not need to "make a living" at this, I can offer the same product, made with great precision, and generally offer it to you for a much lower price.

I have 100% positive feedback, and will always ship within 48 hours of payment using USPS First Class Mail.  SHIPPING IS FREE within the United States!  I will ship Internationally if the buyer will pay for shipping as well as insurance. The insurance will allow the item to be tracked all of the way to delivery. The standard USPS Priority Mail Small Flat Rate Box does not track the item once it leaves the United States, so it is imperative that the insurance is purchased. PLEASE DO NOT ASK ME TO SHIP THE ITEM AS A GIFT OR ALTER ANYTHING ON THE CUSTOMS FORM FOR ANY REASON.
