Fourth wooden baton
It's my fourth wooden baton, made from two sectioned plywood glued together.
It took me about a half an hour of work on lathe and varnished with colorless lacquer to keep it shine.
It's about 410 milimeters long (16 inches) and 66 millimeters(1.4 inches) in diameter.
It's leather lanyard has pretty different style as any other before; baton has hole for it above slots for fingers.
SS Dolch / SS Dagger
This is a SS Dagger I wanted for a really long time. Im being so-so satisfied with it(even though) it's made in China. But it's being very symmetrycal and both sides of blade are sharp.
Handle is being made from solid black plastic, with 2 stainless steel insignias on it. Lower is 14 x 25 millimeters(0.5 x 1 inch) big German hawk, sitting on a right-sided swastika. Upper is 9 millimeters(0.3 inch) in diameter big circle with SS in it.
The blade, both guards and a nut are made from stainless steel and are very well polished. It also has a inscription on middle, which says: "Meine Ehre heißt Treue", which in English language means: "My honor is loyalty".
Blade is 200 millimeters long, 28 millimeters wide and sharpened on both sides.
Lower guard is 75 millimeters(3 inches) wide and 17 millimeters(0.7 inch) thick, although
Upper guard is 61 millimeters(2.4 inches) wide and 12 millimeters(0.5 inch) thick.
The nut is M5 and has a slightly convexed top.
Knife sheet is made from same plastic as handle, decorated with stainless steel end and 2 metal clamps with chain.
Middle metal part(lower clamp) is decorated with 3 swastikas oneach side, that holds together with all ends.
Chain is to pin up a knife to uniform. Chain is also decorated with 2 plates with SS Totenkopf(SS skull) and 2 plates with letters SS.
First brass kubotan
This is my first kubotan ever made. It's made from brass and has about 1.3 millimeters deep slots all over the surface for better grip. End isn't very spike pointed, but can deal some pretty good damage. On top, this kubotan has a key ring for a thumb. It can be carried on a bounch of keys or a keychain. But I keep it in a box of my Parker pen.
It's 132 milimeters long (5.2 inches) and diameter is 10 milimeters (0.4 inches).
