GEN 3.91 Proto Thinket (Faceted Tungsten, SS-Damascus & Copper)
This is the first GEN 3.91 Thinket Hybrid (w/ Faceted Tungsten, SS-Damascus Copper, & Copper-Plated Steel Proto-Style Handle assembly, w/ Hand-engraved & signed Black DLC-coated Slider-Tube & Rhodium-plated Slider-Heads (The Handle-Core comprises #316 SS).
The GEN 3.91 Proto Thinket (w/ Faceted Tungsten, SS-Damascus & Copper), represents the state of the art of current Thinket evolution, and is the most advanced form-factor to date that envisions future design enhancements comprising many different possibilities for Ring components mounted onto a solid #316 Stainless-Steel Handle-core, in order to enable on-the-fly assembly and customization for both aesthetic and functional variety.
Although the silvery hand-engraved linework tooled into the surface of the Black DLC coating may be similar in appearance from one piece to the next, the specific workmanship for each engraved Slider-Tube is a unique creation, because the lines are drawn freehand without a physical template of any kind. This ensures that each signed, hand-engraved piece is an original work in it's own right.
The specially grooved Slider-Heads accommodate special 15mm ID O-Rings for added, satisfying haptic effects.
This Thinket form-factor adds a "reassuring-thud" effect to the soothing action called a "satisfying-bounce" that has always been delivered by every Thinket stress-relief device). The "reassuring-thud" effect was the primary motivation behind the most recent Thinket Kickstarter project called ("The Thinket Now, GEN 3.0), which was launched, funded, and successfully fulfilled in 2018.
The special "thud" sensation is achieved by means of the O-Ring grooves in the Slider-Heads; and O-Rings are included with each Thinket for use in those grooves.
* IMPORTANT: "Please note that the Black PVD / DLC coating on the special limited production-run Slider-Tube is a diamond-hard, satin-like textured coating, and during use the black portion of the Slider-Tube may collect a bit of translucent Stainless-Steel residue from the Handle's inner flared Sleeve assembly.
