The Vorso Mk1 JBE specials are limited to 20 pieces. 


We recently commissioned a very exciting project, working with master gun engraver John.  Each individually numbered and painstakingly hand engraved by the Birmingham based legend. 

They spin for over 15 minutes, the same performance as the widely loved Mk1, but with the beautiful anti aliasing effect seen in the video below.

 

Each top comes with a ruby contact point as standard,  as well as having your choice of Initials incorporated into the design of the engraving, for the personal touch. You will also have the choice of a Performance or Minimal Mk1 Grip. 

About John:

An expert in the art, for over 50 years John has worked with some of the very best companies to have existed in the gun, jewellery and silversmithing industries working out of the historical industrial powerhouse of Hockley, Birmingham, England.  Walking into John's workshop is an experience in itself, part and fully engraved gun components, stocks and locks purposefully sit on the tables, each expertly adorned with an artistic flourish, soon to pass to their lucky owners.

Why Vorso spinning tops?

Spinning tops have been mesmerizing humanity for over 5,500 years, like watching a fire, they are incredibly satisfying- even addictive. Spinning tops have emerged in cultures all over the globe, from ancient Japanese fighting tops to African whip tops, but at Vorso we offer something very much made in modern times. Our spinning tops are created using computer-aided design and simulation, machined on modern CNC lathes, and manufactured in aerospace level materials.

The Mk1 Spinning top was first launched on Kickstarter way back in 2015, you can see the making of the first prototype below.
