At first I wasn't real sure about this configuration… And then it hit me. Awesome.

[Giles]

What are the things hanging at the bottom?

[hairydangler]

Hi @Giles those are tritium key fobs. They glow for years and years with no charging. Tritiumkeychains web site is a good place to look.

[Giles]

Thank you.  They'd be great as bite indicators when night fishing…..

[hairydangler]

Yes that would be a great use for them.

In case it isn't easily seen, that configuration looks kind of like a little robot man. I was just getting ready to change it when this occured to me. I think I'll keep it like this for a while.

Very interesting, I have a pair of those lanterns on my keys. Would be neat if someone could make some in sterling!

I've had the black version of this one for a while and it's one of my most worn items. EDC really. Decided to add the tan version.

A few different pendant and chain configurations I've been enjoying:

@daltmeyer is that the Frisco Chain in your last pic? ^^^^

[hairydangler]

@manufc10 indeed that's a 24" Frisco chain.

Thought so.  Thanks.

The Frisco is going to be my next chain purchase.  I've got a curb chain and two ball chains and I've been eyeballing the Frisco chain forever now.

I have a genuine question about this brand: Why are the items they sell priced so high?

They make a nice product, but they traditional just use silver which is not a very expensive metal… Yet the price on their items is in the thousands.... I could buy pounds of silver for that price.

Is it the craftsmanship on the items that is driving the price up? Or the brand itself just being marketed as being very expensive?

Thanks!

[Giles]

The stuff is amazing.  I think you can work the rest out.

The argument that one could buy a load of silver for the same price completely misses the point.  I can pop down the road and buy a ton of carbon fibre, but it makes a shit fishing rod.

There’s goes a saying buy cheap stuff many times over and over again , or buy expensive once.
If you can find me a better artisan than Josh, I would move from this brand most likely you won’t, it premium
even the celebrity are wearing it…

It a unique and worn by rebel’s

Here's an example of what I'm talking about….

This bracelet would cost $1300.00 if good art sold it:

I'm just wondering why that is the case. The material is the same, and the finishing on the item appears to be comparable... It just seems like a wild markup. I'm trying to understand the jewelry world here. What makes good art justifiably 4x more than this bracelet?

Thanks
