Help me find a shiny object?

Because I seem to have a knack for stumbling upon this sort of thing too late, this is a completed auction for the sort of ankh pendant I've been trying to find for ages.



See?! It's not the Alchemy Gothic "ankh of the dead" that you can find everywhere. Why can't I find this version? Whyyyyy?!

::stamps tiny feet::

I have an ankh very similar to this, made long ago by Jesse Skellington. But alas, the sheath for mine has long since vanished, and Jesse doesn't seem to be responding to attempts to contact him.

Yes, I know it's a ridiculous cliché. But I wants one. So! Have any of you lovely folks seen this sort of ankh w/ a sheath available anywhere, one that isn't the ubiquitous Alchemy Gothic version? (Which, yes, I do own, because my ankh collection is just that silly. But oh, if I could find one of the silver bladed ankhs w/ sheath! I would be a happy ElderGoth indeed.)

:o) I did a Google image search for "sheath ankh".

Happy shopping!

Those are the Alchemy Gothic versions, alas.

Oh! If you find one of these...no, if you find two, I'd love to know about it. I'd kill for one.

I agree. My husband collects ankhs and this would be perfect for his collection... although I have to confess, he almost didn't get his wedding anniversary ankh present because I fell in love with it as well. If you find this please post the link because I'll buy two.

Jesse's cousin, Geoffery, goes to the Merc. I've met him there and he made those with Jesse. If you can track him down, he may be able to help you with a new sheath.
