gun club wednesday
Posted by on August 5, 2009
Welcome to the Gun Club. Each Wednesday I hope to provide you with a taste of gun imagery found in the handmade community. Enjoy the irony!
It’s a gun. It’s a knife. It’s a gun. It’s a knife. It’s a well made gun pocket knife! This little beauty measures about two inches as is and three inches with the blade extended. Made by Mary Andrews, this compact knife comes with a 24 inch chain and a lot of attitude.
