Hello. I'm looking for suggestions on where I can find a well made blade that is disguised as jewelry, or a referral to someone who makes or could make me one. I like the small push blade knifes, like the Cold Steel Urban Pal and Mini Pal, but want something that looks more feminine and elegant that could be mistaken as jewelry.
Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.
 
Search on the William Henry website for neck knives. I prefer folders, but there are nice - and pricey - neck knives with precious materials.
 
It sounds like you are hoping for a small decorative push dagger neck knife. I don't know of such a thing, but you could always buy a small necker and modify it to look more arty. Size, weight and imagination are the limiting factors. A non push dagger you might look at for that purpose is the Outdoor Edge LE Duck.

Basically you are looking at a custom build, but you can use a production knife as the foundation. Any ideas on how big and heavy you can go, and what looks/materials would appeal to you? Any favorite plants or animals it would be cool if it could be disguised to look like?

Or a big flat egg-shaped pendant with designs on it - that would be a good way to hide a mini pal after removing the existing sheath and handle (the top 2 dots are retention magnets). Can be made of g10 or carbon fiber or really pretty wood, etc etc. However the handle will need to be pretty thin or it will get bulky and less like jewelry.

Also check your local laws, I know California at least has a law specifically about knives disguised to look like something else

Hat pins have gone out of style, but in the early 1900s with the advent of wide, elaborate hats, and the emergence of women's lib, they became an item of controversy. There are documented incidents of unescorted women who used eight to ten inch long hat pins to ward off "mashers" who assaulted them on public transport. A search for "hat pin weapon" turns up some interesting results.

Love the sketch. I do like the Boker L'Egg's simplicity, and I think I could modify it like you suggested, possibly work with a wood carver. If I were to design something, I would like a tree shape, where the blade would be inserted into the top, and the trunk/roots would be the handle. Kind of like my sketch here:

Coin knives by a maker (name?) in Merida in rhe Yucatán. Takes actual sliver pesos and puts a blade and puts back together.

found it, JD Ward Knives.

This isn't for self defense purposes but LionSteel make a little folder called the LionBeat that can be worn as a pendant or a keychain, and available in different handle materials.
