Just a thought, why don't you create a "remake" tag so all of the remake posts can be accessed quickly?

well, from a design standpoint, the coffee cup is a nice idea, but the knuckles need to be reversed. Otherwise, you need to hold the cup in your palm in order to put your fingers through the rings comfortably, which negates the point of having a handle in the first place. FAIL.

The problem is, they're still illegal anywhere brass knucks are illegal. Those "paperweight" and "objet d'art" evasions don't actually have any legal bearing.

However, since they're legal where I live, I love it:)

Michael, paperweight might not be a good "excuse" but a working cup would be, since being a cup is the primary use. The purse, probably not because it's removable.

Diggum, you don't need to use all four holes to hold it like you're thinking. Just the top three or middle two. And if your using it as a duster anyways, holding it with the cup in the palm would be.
