Knuckle is the new black in design!
Only recently Trend Hunter featured a cluster of six bad-ass knuckle-inspired designs. And here we bring you yet another, a kick-ass brass knuckle umbrella.
According to the designer, this brass knuckle inspired, Umbuster, has been "classified a Class 5 weapon by good and upright men and women of the Victorian Police. To have and to hold this accessory requires a weapons licence and, or gun licence."
The Victorian Police is the primary law enforcement agency in Victoria Australia. I am pretty sure that statement is most likely a jok. But the design is damn fierce, just looking at it makes me wanna slip my fingers inside, even if that's illegal!
Here is our Knuckle cluster, enjoy:
