Wingard Wearables Co

Wingard Wearables will be exhibiting at BLADESHOW ATLANTA behind Table 21M June 5th-7th in the Cobb Convention Center. I hope to see you there! Show info: The address is: 2 Galleria Pkwy SE, Atlanta, GA 30339. Hours: Friday: 10:00 AM (Early Bird Ticket Holders ONLY) General Admission Friday: 11:00 AM - 6:00 PM Saturday: 9:00 AM - 6:00 PM Sunday: 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM

Very limited quantities! If you were on the mailing list, you got first notice—MicroDickPicks and Empresses sold out quick.

Advice for the ladies: Knife shows are a target rich environment.

In the works: carry systems for ShellRaisers. I am considering tweaks to the design for upcoming batches. Right now there’s a cresting wave feature to assist with sheath retention. Always enjoyed “The Great Wave off Kanagawa,” and so I leaned into the claw wave aesthetics on our first batch of ShellRaiser sheaths, but may go for a more aggressive style on an overhauled design.

@David_JWest Rambled through there when we did Blade West last October. Neat place

The numbered hills of Arco.

Brain damage too. Had an alcoholic acquaintance that’s in his mid 40’s, and over a year ago myself and others would find him repeatedly lying, but a number of untrue statements didn’t make sense to even lie about. Easily verified as untrue. Then a good friend of mine related a legal struggle he was having with a former business partner, also an alcoholic. It went into arbitration and this person also made several untrue statements that were easily refuted by records on hand. Turns out there’s a specific brain disorder related to alcohol abuse. The short term memory isn’t working properly so the brain invents information to fill the gaps. This occurs when the alcoholic is completely sober. By normal observation, the person appears to be lying—A LOT. But it’s all brain problems, and completely destroys the person’s credibility.

ALCOHOL: When you drink alcohol to intoxication at least five days a week, 99% of your doctor visits, ER trips, and ailments will eventually be directly or indirectly related to the alcohol use. You will also become very good at excuse-making, building walls that protect your behavior, expressing anger as a way to shut others down, and eventually isolating yourself from friends and family that bring it up. There are no exceptions. Your organs and body will bear scars. People will stand over your casket and say "Such a shame" and then feel bad because they couldve done something, and then someone will put their hand on the persons shoulder and say "It's not your fault". They will walk away from the cemetery with a tear after they say goodbye. The next morning they will see your stuff, your pics, your facebook and social media, and mumble under your breath "what a waste".

@AndrewM71155133 Love reading that, and yeah I’ve used mine on drywall chores many times!

@WingardWearable Just used mine to put holes in drywall and as a mini hammer for anchors to hang shelves. Confirmed wife likes my dickpick.

Small quantities of MicroDickPicks, Fullsized DickPicks, and DickPick MAGNUMs are being set aside for the Lehigh Valley Knife Show next weekend. Whatever is unsold will hit our store page in mid April. Hope y’all are having a great Easter Sunday. BE EDGY.

Weekend with Wingard Wearables. Did a bit of hiking, working on a batch of MicroDickPicks, need to set aside time for CAD design work, and staying too busy for cat cuddles. We hope everyone has a fantastic Easter weekend. BE EDGY.

A new batch of Damascus Quills is in the works. Pictured are our previous batch created from approximately 80 layers of 1095 and 15N20 steel. This next batch we are using a much lower layer count to hopefully achieve greater visual impact on the Quill’s limited surface area.

@BhavanChand Eventually AI augmented fraudsters will saturate all comms, kinda like how the lion’s share of email traffic is spam or scams. I could see a future where in-person communication increases because it verifies who you are talking to.

I have been observing that people above 50 always want you to meet them in person for even simple 2 minute tasks These things can be easily sorted out over a 2 minute call or a few whatsapp messages But they prefer to meet and discuss in person

The Quill is our minimalist design for picking, piercing, prying & more. Hand-forged in PA, get yours today!

MicroDickPicks & ShellRaisers are back but only a few remain: wingardwearables.com/shop-1

Now don’t get nervous about this video. We could only lay hands on the short camera tripod, so this is me at my best angle. MicroDickPicks in skeletal sheaths are back on the site along with a few ShellRaisers. Add these to your pocket carry and experience the joy of minimalist metal tools. BE EDGY.

What are you doing next weekend? How about you come see your favorite tomahawk merchant (me!) at the Lehigh Valley Knife Show! Details in image below. I will be there with small quantities of (hopefully) Backrippers, Empress Tomahawks, Stingrays, Sparrowhawks, Love Handles, ShellRaisers, Quills, and DickPick multitools. BE EDGY.

@inkblotistan @AndrewM71155133 Shrew? Years ago I got to see and hear two shrews fighting. It was a blur of a brawl. Glad these creatures are so tiny.

Today’s around the house/workshop EDC. Everything here altogether weighs just 18 ounces, easily carried in the sweatpants. - MicroDickPicks will be back this week, so be on our mailing list. - A batch of Backripper tomahawks is in the works. - ShellRaisers are sold out but more soon. - And I’m a fan on knipex pliers. Used to EDC the 4” and 5” but past few months been really liking the 6” knipex overall.

@talledcombs “Kill or Get Killed” has some gems

"Wait, even the REALLY goofy-looking shooting stances?" "ESPECIALLY the really goofy-looking shooting stances."

Not for the squeamish. Fullsized DickPick in haymaker grip—it’s a handy multitool for picking, poking, prying, light percussive hammering, awl-like chores, and marlin spike tasks. It also functions as a wholesome holemaker. We are down to just a few in stock. wingardwearables.com/product-page/t…
