GAMBLOR EDC beads (Grail Drop #19)

Handmade in California by Tim Markel, the Gamblor EDC beads are the 118th shop-drop by the Orange County maker and the 19th Copper Wagon Grail Drop. Each Gamblor bead features two vintage Westinghouse Double Black Line Ivorite paper Micarta caps, two concave opal layers framed between four brass segments, four Hyperglow layers, and three black G10 layers. The Gamblor beads are now the tallest and widest Copper Wagon Grail Drop, beating out both the Glass Atlas for width, and the Pine Miner for height.

A total of 12 Gamblor beads were made, but only 11 are available through the shop-drop. There are two (2) one-off variants that will be randomly distributed (see pictures). One variant replaces the G10 layers with brass segments and features a slightly more slender profile, while the other features a refined top cap with a recessed brim that exposes the upper black line of the Ivorite while retaining the standard bulbous profile.

Born from a passion for craftsmanship and a nostalgia for the forgotten, every Copper Wagon EDC bead is carefully designed, assembled, turned, and polished in small batches. No two are the same, and each drop exists as a one-time release.

Attach your Copper Wagon EDC beads to your favorite pieces of EDC gear as additional grip points while also elevating their presence in your loadout. Each meticulously crafted bead possesses a unique, evolving character and enduring charm, designed to withstand the test of time and the rigors of everyday life, ensuring it becomes a cherished heirloom for generations to come. 

The Gamblor beads were fine-tuned to work perfectly on your standard 6mm spin-sticks/bead-caddies, or as a knife lanyard bead, or zipper-pull.

Every Copper Wagon bead comes to you with a signed certificate of authenticity, themed paracord, and limited-edition swag.
