Finished these yesterday. Dragon sold for $180, Arrowhead sold for $120. Grey Monday damn near killed me solo.

3/4" Cube Twist

HNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG!

 

[Trady]

I want one. Would love a whale slayer, double barbed with the end sharpened so I can shank people/aquatic creatures, and the open circle style opener on the none business end so I can twirl it around on one finger at tastings while staring menacingly at people

are there any openings?

are their openings on the list?

Real talk, two of my buddies are getting married this year and both are huge beer nerds (whom a couple of you might know). These would make amazing wedding gifts.

It means that you will get one. There are multiple lists. It's better than not nek on a list.

Think the doc appears to be locked. You should be able to send JR a message and let him know what you're interested in.

Hello Sir
Is there any chance on getting one of these great whale slayers?
Cheers
Chris

JR. Please bump Trady to the top of the list. He's been waiting more patiently than anyone I've ever seen, and is well deserved of one of your masterpieces! Just sayin'

(Smooches!)

ps. Make him a light saber, a Death Star or a Millenium Falcon opener.

Have we lost hotmetal ? Hope things are going well JR.

 

[caaam]

Agreed. I'm waiting anxiously for this list to go live again. I want a hotmetal opener of any sort at all

Hammond LA? If so your best bet is to drive up to hotmetal house and beg. I think he's in Meridian.

 

[furley]

is there some retail/etsy outlet for these or are they all made to order?

Dat opener...

 

[amk1]

Looks like someone is selling theirs, which seems not cool (I'm guessing hotmetal doesn't charge $150 for a whaleslayer?):

Depends on the type of opener. Some aren't that expensive, some are a lot more.
When he auctions stuff off via FB (usually a new style or unique piece) he'll routinely get $300-350.
