As some do know, I made a set of ten curved finger talons out of copper for .dark. These were really prototypes, just to see if they worked.I even wore them down the local pub, they curved nicely around a pint glass but hey, they are used to me down there!The way home the usual cat stroking session and my cat had a real deep stroking with the claws, the cat apparently loved it so I see the use of finger talons with cat owners.

I have developed my talon now,I have one made out of brass with the tip, 5mm of it hard soldered and filed into a blade, so now the pointy action together with the easily scratching action, push a little harder and it cuts skin with ease.

So far only prototypes, but I am keen to make the claws out of titanium or surgical steel and am investigating a blanking machine and there a three dimensional punch to form my design.This is a project at college and I will be doing blanking in the next few weeks so if I get anywhere with it I will post here.

Hey az

As Aneirin said, he made me a cracking set, but they are copper so not good for blood play, but if you are willing to spend out on surgical steel - then I would really recommend you speaking to him as they totally rock!

Here is a LINK, I also have them on in a photo on our CM account.

Well, I just made my own... I used a set of steel spacer rings, and soldered a set of finishing nails onto them... a little grinding, a little filing... I sent them out to be powder-coated, and they look and work as well as any of the $200 ones...
Set of 5... $25.

Ah yes, some of the best tools are the ones you make yourself. The time and personal energy you put into them really makes the item very special.

Yes, they are very beautiful, yet another variation on a popular theme.
