Description
For use with ring actuated xiphoid knives.

Clever solution to the prevention of accidentally actuating the device during normal movement and flexing of the wrist...say while climbing, sword fighting or grappling as the A.C. characters are shown to be able to do.

Idea for this one came to me while watching a video of one persons "Assassins' Creed Hidden Blade" xiphoid knife prop where I noticed the ring he had looked and acted something like this.

With the availability of 'spinner' rings on the market, this might be an easy mod for most prop makers. Personally though, I just discovered Shapeways.com so I think I'd like to try uploading the .stl to them to experiment with 3D Printed objects. If it works out, I'll make sure to link the address to buy them.

--UPDATE: 1/17/2013
R&D concluded! Now available thru ShapeWays.com.
The US ring size 10 version can be found here at this [link]
I have no other sizes currently but will look and listen for the next size.
