Thanks Eric, the weight isn't my big worry. More interested in how it balances with the knife on it.
Thought about getting one made out of aircraft aluminum.
What's the going rate for one? Anyone know?


Aluminum may not be a great choice with the stainless tube, corrosion could be a problem on aluminum. As long as your considering having one made 6Al-4V titanium much better IMO. It would cost more but you'd have one no one else has.

I have the one that Steve Peter's sells, has compass on the outside and temp on the underside. I think it was around $100.

Chief, I bought mine about 12 years ago and it ran $250. All stainless with brass fittings. Mine came with the skull crusher cap with compass inside.

I had a friend of mine who owns a tool and die machine shop make me one out of titanium. But it does not have a skull crusher but it has a built in wrist thong eye on it. It is a one piece solid machined cap. Oldguy
