Handle Options
I offer a few different handle option on the Blackjacks and Twistjacks, they are as follows;
AJ Link - This style has a metal loop welded to the jack, and the wrist strap is on a D Ring.
The advantages of this style
- Easy to fold for pocket carry
- Allows a certain amount of twist, should someone grab the jack and twist it to force you to the ground the extra twist allowance greatly reduces this
2 Part - traditional style, wrist loop is one part, and fixed to the jack shaft, then over braided. This is the classical look
Pinky Loop - A short leather loop sized big enough for the average pinky finger
Advantages of this style
- Small and doesn't flap around or get in the way
- Very little protrudes from the pocket so less obvious
- Quicker to use when faced with a situation and you need to use the jack, no having to stop and put your hand through the standard style wrist loop
Polo Grip Loop (or Carnie strap) - Extra Long '2 Part' style loop, this goes over your thumb and back of the hand.
Adantages of this style
- Locks the jack in a firm fixed grip
- Reduces nearly all looseness in the grip, so if you have a weak grip this is probably the best style
- Reduces grip fatigue when using the jack
Over back of Hand Strap - Fitted to the DL Convoy and the Head Wrap (HW)
