Nothing too fancy,but very functional.Plus it's the only one I have,don't see a need for another,this fills every need.

Knife is a Damascus blade from Doug Campbell,armguard was made for me by Clint V.

This was made for me by a guy whose friendship I treasure.

   

It belongs to Dano, now. If my arm were one inch longer, Dano would have never laid eyes on it!

Killie, that's just incredible...couldn't you take growth hormones or something to grow that arm an inch?     :cool:

I got this one from Mike Mitten at the 2006 Compton, It is signed on the inside by all the Wensels and Mitten Brothers. Great bunch of individuals, Just don't let Gene get in front of you at the chow line.  :D

I must say those are some pretty sweet armguards...  I wanted to make an armguard and a few for my kids and was wondering about having the knife on there.  Seems like the string would catch??  Anyone have any problems with that?  They all seem to have the knife on the top.  Any thoughts?  I know mine won't be that fancy, but the knife idea is pretty cool.  Thanks for posting all these!

Where are you folks that make your own guards buying the elastic cord, and what is the best size? I have some leather and would like to make my own but not having any luck locating the cord.
Thanks
