CPPRHD POP Bead - Titanium Skull Lanyard Bead and Bottle Opener

The CPPRHD POP Bead is a handmade titanium lanyard bead with a bottle opener built into it. Eugene Medvedev, who works under the CPPRHD (Copperhead) label, sculpts the skull face into the front plate and machines the opener jaw into the back, then finishes the whole 25 mm body in stonewashed black titanium. It weighs 12 g and carries a 5.8 mm bore that takes 550 paracord, micro cord or a split ring. Two titanium screws hold the two-piece body together, so you can strip and clean it. Thread it onto a knife lanyard, a custom bead keychain or a pack zipper and it both looks and does something. Browse CPPRHD beads and EDC beads.

Handmade Titanium, Sculpted Not Printed

This is handmade, small-batch work, not a mass-produced trinket. The body is turned from solid titanium, the skull relief is sculpted into the face rather than cast or printed, and the opener jaw is machined so it actually works on a crown cap. Titanium is the right base material: it will not rust, it is inert against skin, and the stonewash black treatment is a surface finish on solid metal rather than paint, so it cannot flake. Expect it to pick up a little character on the high points with heavy keychain use - that is normal and, for most collectors, the point. Browse CPPRHD beads, EDC beads and lanyard beads.

• Working bottle opener jaw machined into the back face.
• 5.8 mm bore takes 550 paracord, micro cord, leather thong or a split ring.

• Keychain carry with a built-in bottle opener so you never hunt for an opener again.
• Zipper pull on a jacket, pack or pouch - a 12 g titanium bead is easy to find by feel.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a POP Bead?
A CPPRHD lanyard bead that combines a hand-finished titanium body, an engraved skull face and a working bottle-opener jaw in one 25 mm cylinder. It is jewellery that does a job.

Who makes it?
Eugene Medvedev, working under the CPPRHD (pronounced Copperhead) label. He is known for hand-sculpted titanium, copper and bronze EDC beads made in small batches rather than mass production.

Will the black finish wear off?
The stonewash black is a surface treatment on solid titanium, not paint. It will pick up a little character on high points with heavy keychain use, exactly like a titanium knife handle. It will not flake or peel.

What cord fits through it?
The bore is 5.8 mm, which comfortably takes 550 paracord, and anything smaller: micro cord, bank line, leather thong or a split ring.

Is it heavy enough to matter?
At 12 g it is light for its volume but noticeably weightier than a plastic or aluminium bead, which is what you want - a lanyard with a little mass falls clear of the knife handle instead of tangling.

Glossary of Key Terms

Lanyard Bead
A decorative and functional bead threaded onto a knife lanyard, keychain or zipper pull to add weight, grip and personal style.

CPPRHD / Copperhead
Eugene Medvedev's metalworking label, known for hand-sculpted titanium, copper and bronze EDC beads and accessories made in small runs.

Anodised Titanium
Colour created by growing a controlled oxide layer on titanium with electricity. The colour is part of the metal, not a coating, so it cannot chip off.

Stonewash
A tumbling process that gives metal a uniform matte, slightly mottled surface that hides scratches from daily carry.

Paracord
A lightweight nylon kernmantle rope, commonly 550 lb test, used for lanyards, wraps and EDC accessories.

Patina
The surface colour change that develops on copper, bronze and titanium through oxidation and handling; it is non-destructive and often desirable.

Who Should Buy the CPPRHD POP Bead

• You want a handmade, small-batch titanium bead, not a mass-produced trinket.
• You like the skull motif and want it sculpted into the metal rather than printed on it.
• You want a lanyard bead that also opens bottles.
• You appreciate a machined, screwed-together construction that you can disassemble and clean.
• You are buying a gift for a knife collector who already has the knife and wants the detail.

Who Should Skip It

• You want a bright anodised colour. This one is deliberately dark stonewashed black.
• You need a load-bearing accessory. A bead is decorative and organisational, not structural.
• You are looking for a budget bead. This is handmade, limited-run work and priced accordingly.
• You dislike skull imagery.
• You want something that will stay pristine on a keyring - titanium beads are meant to be handled and will show it.

Care & Maintenance

• Wipe the bead with a dry microfibre cloth after handling; skin oils dull the anodised colour over time.
• Never use metal polish or abrasive compounds on an anodised titanium bead - the colour lives in a micron-thick oxide layer.
• Rinse with warm water and mild dish soap, then dry fully. Do not let water sit inside the 5.8 mm bore.
• Check the paracord or split ring regularly and replace it before it frays; a lost bead is the most common failure.
• Re-tie the lanyard knot if it loosens; a snug knot stops the bead rattling against the knife handle.
• Store the bead away from keys and coins when it is not on a lanyard to keep the stonewashed finish clean.
• If the bead picks up pocket lint in the bore, push a dry cotton swab through rather than using water.
• Keep it away from chlorine and bleach; both strip anodising fast.
• Expect the stonewash to hide wear. That is the point - it is a bead meant to be handled daily.
