Windlass – Peloponnesian Bronze Greek Dagger
In 431 BC, Sparta, a city on the Greek peninsula of Peloponnese, declared war on Athens and its growing power. Sparta and the Peloponnesian League encircled Athens and destroyed its food supply. Athens brought its population inside the city walls, creating a disastrous situation that resulted in a plaque wiping out a third of its people and army, including General Pericles and his sons. Sparta became a leading power in Greece. This dagger is copied from an original in our possession (which is pictured above) that dates from the 9th -7th century BC-older than the Peloponnesian War but a design that was still in vogue at the time.
This Greek dagger is based on an original and its blade is bronze with a full tang like its historical example. The original likely had wood scales (which would have rotted). Windlass has instead used bone because of how attractive the material and color contrasts with bronze. The handle is very slim, but surprisingly durable due to its full tang construction and the grip is scalloped to aid grip during a thrust. The crescent-shaped pommel is an integral part of the tang and is flush with the scales. Windlass designed the sheath to be worthy of nobility (the original dagger doesn’t have one), with a highly embellished bronze throat and tip and three square medallions. The scabbard has a wood core and is covered with leather. A bronze ring is attached for lashing the sheath to a belt. A truly unique weapon suitable for any historical collection!
Please Note: We can sharpen the blade, but please be aware that the edge of the blade will be bright and lighter in color than the rest of the blade. Also, even though it is sharpened it is bronze and will not stay sharp for as long as a steel dagger would and may dull quickly.

Here’s my note before I’ll get started….
(NO COPYING OR PLAGIARIZING FROM ME AND ONE OF MY CLOSEST FRIEND’S WORK! THAT INCLUDES OUR CHARACTERS, DESIGNS, STUFF, ETC. IMPOSTERS AND SEXBOTS ARE NOT WELCOME TO FOLLOW MY BLOG WHATSOEVER! 😡 That will be all….I mean it.)
Fixing my JBL Headphones w/newer ear pads
Sup, guys? While I’m still working on my continuing NexiGo video game controller; since last time where I’d addressed of testing its connection test and some features. (Link Here)
I promise It’ll happened to continue, but had to put on hold until I decided when doing free time. Can’t go to rush in without expectation, though.
Anyways, just dropping off with this recent item I’d got it from Amazon.com. Its more of fixing my JBL headphones set since July. 15th, 2018; after owning it back then. (Link Here #2)
⬆️ 1st through 2nd Images (Aug. 13th, 2023; at 6:07 P.M.)
As you can see, I’d ordered this replacement kit from “SOULWIT” brand; very compatible to any headphones including JBL models. Thankfully I’d picked carefully for “JBL Tune 450BT” type after reading from its description. It also had soft cooling-gel to keep my ears comfortable and hopefully doesn’t go flat. I’m sure it’ll works than my original JBL ear pads I’ve wear them from past few years.
⬆️ 3rd through 5th Images (June. 15th, 2023; at 7:49 to 7:53 A.M.)
Just before getting my new ear pads months ago, I took some time to show off what’s happening with my JBL headphones set. While it’s running fine that I’m relief about, but the older ear pads shows its age. You can see that it completely rips off after many uses later. Took of 5 years since July. 15th, 2018 after owning my wireless headphones; as I already mentioned.
It’ll be a right time to replace its older ear pads for newer ones. I even carefully take off from the right side ear pad before saving it for later.
⬆️ 6th through 7th Images (Aug. 13th, 2023; at 6:07 to 6:11 P.M.)
Back to where I’m started, I’d unpacked from the bag itself while prepare to replace my old ear pads. It includes two new ones, some tools, and some manuals which I’ll get into it for a bit.
However for the blue tool I’m using, its for pushing the edge to secure my new ear pads tight while inserting. Something like that. It would be tricky if I’d use with my fingertips or other substitutes.
⬆️ 8th through 10th Images (At 6:18 to 6:20 P.M.)
These are the two sided manuals and a small one to read from. Though apologize for how it crumbled up even after trying to flatten out.
Nevertheless, I’ve read through those just fine while follow some instructions. However, I’m pretty much know to take off my JBL headphones old ear pads.
BTW, just ignored the other side of the manual for “JBL Tune 600BTNC” model; which was also included on the packaging. I don’t have that model.
⬆️ 11th through 13th Images (At 6:23 to 6:24 P.M.)
Before doing so, I still got one old ear pad to remove before cleaning from the inside. I don’t want to get any dust of it for that matter.
⬆️ 14th through 16th Images (At 6:29 to 7:08 P.M.)
Now here’s what I’ve inserting new ear pads to get fit with my headphone set. I described it “a bit hard” to cover up about few hour before finishing. I tried to stretch both of new ear pads without ripping it by accident.
I’d use with my blue tool to close up the edges tight. I’ll be keeping that for anytime of getting newer ear pad replacements.
Anyways, I’d managed to get it fit with my headphone set. Took about just one hour as I mentioned as well, but got it stretched out as I can to have it fit the inside the speakers. Though let’s see if it worth to wear without hurting my ears.
⬆️ 17th through 20th Images (At 7:13 P.M. to 7:22 P.M.)
First, I’m going to have some water drops into my new ear pads; as I followed the small manual to enhance the cooling sensation. I needed to be careful with it by using the dropper; which was also included from the packaging.
Sorry if I missed that to show at the beginning, though.
Anyways, I use a cup of water and collect some droplets with a tool I’m using. Afterwards, I needed to be careful to go around the ear pads. Not too much because it’ll get soggy if putting too much moisture. Or what I was thinking, though.
After that, I’ll let it dry about 2 to 3 minutes before wearing it. Well, I considered this good as new just like that. 😉
⬆️ 21st through 25th Images (August. 16th; at 4:19 to 4:20 P.M.)
I’d secretly wearing it from past few days til now. However, it felt good wearing with my new ear pads for my JBL headphones. 👍
In fact, it was better than my original JBL ear pads to wear after years later. I’ve gone through having older pairs before decided to replace newer ones. I mean my ears are fine despite had some problems later on.
Thanks to having a newer ear pads with cooling gel material, I’m hopeful it’ll be feeling with my ears without little pain. 😌👂
Overall thoughts: ⬇️
I’m enjoy my newer ear pads after replacing the older ones for my JBL headphones. It’ll help me to cool off my ears with its soft-cooling gel, but also had better sound quality when I listened to music or videos from YouTube. Not sure how long it’ll last long, but at least it was worth picking up from Amazon.com for this month of August 2023.
Hope if everyone will be saving some money of getting these for your older headphones.
