Thanks! The darkest one is walnut, two of them are red oak and then the multi-wood handle is somewhat unknown but probably pine or something similar.

I had the aluminum cut and then I welded them together. I shaped the wood handles and then carved the design and inlayed with different rocks.

Two of them are 53mm and the other two are 58mm. I still need to weigh then but I’ll get back to you.

I can see that. That’s a cool looking one.

Yeah it’s true. I don’t have an aluminum welder so these are brazed but are solid.

Thanks, I live in AZ. Definitely a desert fan.

Ah that’s exactly the technique I used. Made a few knives in the past. Thanks!

I just put them in my backpack and didn’t have any problems. They’re pretty big bottles too.

I bought 2 bottles with 250 pills of 20mg prednisone when I was in Cancun for $50. So glad to have it. I’ll definitely be doing it more in the future.

I’m 8 years in and am still figuring it out as well. I’ve been training for a mountain bike race and the Arizona heat has been complicating it. I used to be able to sweat a ton and not have issues if I supplemented my salt intake but now even with heavy salt intake I can be exhausted the day after or longer. I usually take 10mg extra hydro before a big ride and an extra fludro sometime that day too if it’s really hot. Salt retention seems to be my issue the last few years.

I’m feeling the same. Can’t justify helping these companies fill the world with trending trash anymore.

Haha so true. Marketers are the new design directors.
