Hogo, Ouch! Hope you heal up fast. I always tell the doc to take away the pain but leave the swelling. What is the second from left hide? Beautiful!
Second from left is what I call "dragon scales". Each one is hand stamped into the leather.
Just an idea. What I would like to see is a limited edition gentleman's set containing HDS 250 clicky titanium and Chris Reeve Knives Small Sebenza knife …. Oh, yes, and Hogo would contribute with stingray holsters. $999.99. Five hundred sets.
I've done quite a few stingray holsters. PITA to make but for natural material, nothing beats it. Very tough stuff.
So can someone tell me how to disassemble the bezel/lens/reflector so I can try this out?
Thanks again
The bezel screws into the reflector assembly, which in turn, screws into the flashlight. I'd take some pics but I just got home from Henry's and am leaving town tomorrow for a few days. If no one gets pics of this by the time I get back, I'll see if I can help you out.
Well... Back from Henry's and over 450 lights have shipped in the last few days. Still some more to go, but those will have to wait until next week.
I guess since the back orders are nearly done, I don't have to keep posting updates...
Unless you would like to hear about the Rotary clips I got to see today? Naaaaaaa. You don't want to hear about those. Well, I'll tell you anyway.
If you recall, I didn't much care for the first prototype I saw. Well, I'm more impressed now. They should be available in about 8 weeks (I'm exaggerating because if you think 8 you will be happy if it happens in 6.) They consist of a small band that can go around the head or tail, that tensions on with a screw, however the screw does not touch and muck up your light. Very clever design. You can also place it where you want on the head or tail and adjust it to your preference. I'm probably doing a lousy job describing it, but you really should be carrying your HDS in a leather holster anyway. I'll post more as I find out more and even try to get a picture or two if I can.
So that's it for the updates...
I did see a box of Cerakoted tails, battery tubes, and heads that the UPS guy delivered while I was there. I saw...
Blaze orange
Hot pink
Zombie green
Bronze (looked very very cool but not a match for my Sig Sauer Spartan which is good as that will save me some money)
Purple
Olive drab
and the official Magpul Flat Dark Earth.
They all looked great. Henry said there will be pictures on the website but it will take some time. If I can sneak a picture next week, with Henry's permission, I'll post it. They will be in the Custom section of the HDS website when they are ready to be built and sold.
Too tired for rum as I'm off way too early tomorrow headed to Phoenix for the weekend.
Hogo out.
