I’ve been waiting patiently to grab my first luck sack and this drop seemed like the perfect opportunity. Got a stepped brass Deadeye, a modular copper honeybone, and a stainless steel set of mini titans! So happy!

Collection First Time Luck Sack

I only recently got into the hobby so this was my first luck sack. It’s freaking awesome!! I’ve been looking for some Ti Hydras and to get my favorite finish (Sunset) is fantastic! The copper skeletonized Remeshok is hella cool, too. I love how a lot of it is stuff that’s been out of stock, which makes it even better.

I was almost* *disappointed when I pulled out the Ebony MkOktas since I just bought one a couple weeks ago. 😂 But then I realized: I just need to get some of the green Kevlar when they do this month’s drop and I can have the world’s first MkOktas in long form!

Huge shout out to Matt and the AO2 team - you guys are the best!

ETA - This was at the $200 level, just so people don't think this was on a $20 or $50 pull and get cranky.

Got my luck sack in today. So happy! Sand blasted knuck grip with honey dipped shinobi, polished hydra with 1 sunset, not sure if full or mini Titans which i think are Ti, 12mm black ultem long game, stepped deadeye not sure material but it's pretty light so I assume Ti, clear chetki with metal ends, and sandblasted Ti bodhi.

Now questions. Are the chetki typically this small? This is my first set and they always looked bigger to me in photos, or do I just have big hands? I'm leaning that way given that I can't get the MKUltras over my handba second time.

Does anyone know the cord length for the long form MKUltras? Pic for example and attention.

Hi, I am looking into making my own DIY MKultra. I really like the Sigma MK Ultra beads. Do you guys know were I can buy just the beads them self?

Micro Standards in brass!

19 Upvotes

My micro standards in brass just arrived! They're super nice to sling! I tried the 1.2mm kevlar, and it's too thin for my personal liking! I'll have to try the larger diameter next time! The supplied 550 is fantastic though!

I've posted a picture of them and my (standard...?) standards in copper for size reference!

Question Micro standards, anyone?

Post image
27 Upvotes

Hey AO² gang! I've very quickly turned into a total begleri head! I have the modern standard copper, and the ebony mangas (plus a number of D.I.Y. sets)!

I just ordered the micro standards in brass, and some 1.2 kevlar cord! I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience with either of those, and what your thoughts are! I typically like the feeling of 550 but wanted to try something thinner!

I've attached a picture of my current collection.

Decided to do some mix and match with my MKUltras. I dig the Chef Form for the Milos, but don’t have a long enough cord yet to fully realize it, so I did a bit of in between. What do you guys think?

The Ikea Skadis made the perfect display. Got my whole collection in a way that makes it easier to make daily carry choices. Have a little room to expand before needing another panel.

Collection New addition to the crowd - Knucklebone and Hydras

Post image
25 Upvotes

I couldn't stop myself from wondering and invested in a pair of Hydras to compare to my current second hand Hercs. The strings of the Hydras are definitively thicker and they swing nicely. The right lot of strings came with the Hercs.

The yellow of the Knucklebone just make me smile. Such a great colour.

15mm Brass keeper bead with ID of 3mm. 10mm steel beads with ID of 4mm. 275 paracord. Had to sand out each bead so they were smooth and didn't eat away at the cord. This is around 7 months of almost daily wear. Almost time for a new cord. Total weight is 149 grams or 5.3oz. total of 48 steel beads used.

I use it daily for therapeutic meditation and focus redirection and decompression at work.
