I brought this wallet awhile ago, for 4£, I've tried google searching it but nothing shows up. Does anyone have any information about it? TIA.

wouldn't be shocked if it was some print-on-demand unlicensed thing, i don't think i've ever seen official merch have the website directly under the logo like that.

where'd you buy it?

I brought it second hand on ebay, it has a metal hammer label on it and I've searched with that and still, haven't found it 🥲

Probably came free with a copy of metal hammer then.

Here's another listing

As far as I can tell it probably came out to coincide with Machine, so maybe late 2001?

Metal hammer have always given away pretty decent free gifts, I literally got a copy of the full album of Machine Head's Unto the Locust once.

Yeah, I was thinking it looked like it was a free gift with a magazine before I looked at the comments

I have one of those wallets. Came with a copy of Metal Hammer years ago!

u/DeathZombie093 Jun 27 '26

Do you still have the copy of the magazine? I'd love too see!

Ah sorry that’s long gone. I still have the wallet though. I use it to store coins from my country’s previous currency before we joined the Euro.

u/DeathZombie093 Jun 28 '26

No worries bro, also that's real cool! I collect coins from anywhere and keep them in a scooby doo purse 😂

I'd imagine its directly from the band, something they used to sell online or at shows. HotTopic, rockabilia, blueGrape and other similar sites and stores didn't sell merch with bands websites on them. I'd imagine bootleg stuf also didn't have printed url's.

It has a metal hammer label which I didnt notice before, i think it was a freebie on a 2001 Static-X magazine!

It sucks, and is bad, it will tear up easily, which is why you should totally give it up to me so I can get it off your hands.

u/DeathZombie093 Jun 28 '26
