Strop Suggestion: Use a thin piece of leather on the wood. That prevents the edge from crushing (pushing) into the leather which then creates a more rounded edge. A thin piece stays "flatter" (no crushing) and gives a better edge. You can see the edge dip into the leather when you strop it.
I ended up buying the template. It is great quality and simple to do. I did veer off some a bit by adding a second piece of leather in the middle and cutting out the center of the two middle pieces. I got two large flat fishing jigs, cut the hook off and put them in the cavity in the handle. Lastly I did not cut the dip in the handle to expose the lighter. I ran it all the way back to enclose the weights. Final result is a pair of weighted leather knuckle dusters. Fun little project
I purchased this pattern off of antsy and failed so many times to get it right because of the holes. I wish I could watch this video first and just bought the gasket maker. Thank you for the instructions
Hello, i've been thinking about getting into this type of thing. What do you recommend when it comes down to learning how to handle the machines and overall. Moreover, where do you recommend a beginner to start
Hello, Im ccoming late to the party i guess. I just watched the video, it was awesome. How do i get a copt of your pattern? I went to your Etsy shop and it was not there. Thanks and best of luck.
Just dont use it as a weapon and you're fine. The second you use it in a fight its automatically assault with a weapon. But owning a leather item that looks like brass knuckles but actually serves another function(ie lighter case) is totally legal in Canada

That has to be the most creative, inspired and unnecessary thing that I’ve ever wanted so bad to make!
It is unnecessary for sure.
Between drawbridge and dark horse you guys have not only taught me new skill but you've kept my sanity through covid
Thanks Neil!
Where is this guy. I just realized this was his last video
I don’t smoke and I hardly ever use a small lighter but this is so cool I want people in my life that do smoke to have one!

Would love to see pics. Tag me at @drawbridgeprops if you have any pasted on social media.
Hi! I couldn’t find the template on Etsy. Could you share me the direct link please? Thank you!
Hi! Can you send me the link of the pattern? Thank you!
Need vent holes for the lighter to work. That's what the holes on the metal cage are for.
You can use a circle cutter to cut out the holes like a olfa circle cutter.

Can you link to the gasket punch set please? Is this a Canadian Tire tool? Im having a hard time finding it.
It’s originally from lee valley.
Drawbridge Props & Armoury lee valley, oh ok. Probably expensive then. Thanks.

Cheaper set that would also work.

You can still buy it on my other website: drawbridgefinance.ca/
I just checked out your Etsy store.I don't see the weights on there.
I’ve been sold out for quite a while. When I finish setting up my new shop I will build some more.
@Drawbridge Props & Armoury yay
I'm a little surprised that this is legal in Canada, even made of leather.
Hmmmm.
Its not a weapon. If anything, a prop. Police wouldn’t care.
Just dont use it as a weapon and you're fine.
The second you use it in a fight its automatically assault with a weapon.

Would it actually work as a duster tho?
Ha can you ad the flames to the pdf 😉?
The pdf downloads have the flames on them on both Etsy and www.drawbridgeprops.com. Where did you see them without the flames ?
I should have checked first.. off to get some printer ink😎
shoulda used a zippo lol.
Bit hard to wrap your hand around.
