This is my first knuckleduster ever. I like'd the hammered finish knuckleduster, but I have chosen for a smooth finish. It's not done yet. I am more busy at making lead bullets atm. But I will finish it offc. You can say it's "functional" right now. It's made out of 1" (25mm) aluminium. The knuckleduster holds very comfy in my hands, and also into meny other hands. I am quite pleased how it turned out, even though it's not finished..

So yea.. That's what i've been doing atm.
Well I'll let the pictures tell the rest.

Well there's no denying what this is used for. Personally i hope that everyone one here uses their creations for recreational purposes, but this can't.
Spudding is illegal in alot of countries and nearly in others, it's got a bad reputation allready and doesn't need help to make i worse.

It is nice work though.

I didn't make the knuckleduster for hurting people. I made it for testing my metalworking skills. It's just a showcase item. Why could I not put my creation in here?

I didn't say you couldn't, just that our hobbie has a bad reputation and "doesn't need help to make it worse"

Everything has more than one use. Guns can be used for killing people, hunting, target shooting, display models etc. Knives can be used for Englanders to stab people with, to cut food and open boxes.

Hell, there may be legitimate uses for this other than a showcase item. Like using it to protect your other hand from the unstoppable fury that is a boxcutter.

Nicely made, if any filing was done on it how did you do it? Aluminum tends to clog up files quite well.

Cool.
Did you just mill the shape out, drill holes and filed everything round?

Turn it into a cannon handle or something to do with a cannon and I'll open this back up so you can edit this thread into a relation to our hobby. You can try Theopia...
