Knucklebone - Slimini Exotic Metal Editions
Knucklebone - Exotic Zircuti
Since their introduction, the Slimini Knucklebones have quickly become one of our best-selling products. The stunning zircuti model features terrific fine grained zircuti, and a great finish which brings out the swirling grain lines in perfect blues and purples, with the contrasting deep grey zirc that makes zircuti so special.
Our Zircuti Edition
The elegant Zircuti material is forged from folded layers of titanium and zirconium, then precision machined, polished, and torched to create eye-popping colour patterns, reminiscent of wood grain. When machined to our specifications, the grains of the material become exposed in a way that accentuates the appearance of the curves, creating a beautiful topographic relief.
Each piece is distinct, with its own grain patterns. This edition is only available polished, with a shallow etch, giving just the faintest impression of the material texture, and a very unique feel during play. The photos provided are all unedited, and shot with bright indoor lighting, to give a true depiction of what you’ll be getting. The pieces depicted are quite representative of the range. The polished finish is durable in normal use, but will eventually show scratches and may fade through repeated contact with other pocket items etc.
This elegant Knucklebone edition may not be for everyone due to its price point, but for those who know what they're getting into, you're bound to cherish these pieces. The weight is very similar to the titanium models - right around 49.5g (with slight variation due to the blending of layers in the billet).

General information on the Slimini Knucklebone design
Our "Slimini" Knucklebone can best be described as a slimmed down version of our extremely popular Mini sized kbone. The idea was to try to integrate the most appealing features of all three sizes of our metal knucklebones.. slimming the form factor down as much as possible to reduce weight like the micro size, approximating the length and max diameter of the mini size for a streamlined and pocket friendly size, and maximizing the length of the grip section to make the unit easy to use for people with larger hands, and to benefit from the longer weight distribution of the original size. The resulting design hits the mark on all three. While kbone selection is ultimately a personal preference, this trim unit has a lot to offer for folks looking for a minimalist, high performance roller.
Warnings: Metal versions are heavy and solid--can break things or hurt things if dropped. It is recommended that you play over carpet, couch, or the like, or outside.
