Nice work SOS and Stormdrane!

I made this SAK pouch last night to protect my Alox scales.

I want to try this one next.


Thanks for the links! Now, if you’ll excuse me... :cheers: :cheers:

No, cause you can learn to tie knots for survival, and learn to do something for complete boredom! lol

When you guys get some stuff made post pics I would like to see what colors you come up with. I really like the OD and dark green combination. Been looking around town for those colors can't find them. I may end up ordering them.
I think Alcohol, Tabacco and Firearms should be a convenience store, not a government agency.

The video showed two tools that I didn’t know about. The wood board with the ruler and the needle for looping the cord. Is there a link you could share for that. I think I found my son’s Christmas present.  :tu:

Paracord jigs are pretty easy to make. I have made this one.



This is the one I am using.

Did you notice the boardparacord link at the bottom for the knoters tool it was kind of hard to see? They also have other paracord toolsets. https://www.boredparacord.com/

Got my paracord today!



Those bundles always gets tangled up on me so I usually do this doughnut thing.. No more tangles and no matter if I'm home or out in the woods I just pull and get the right amount right away.. Took a few hours to put it up but it's well worth it.. The small blue are 15m (50 feet) and the others are 30m (100 feet)

Nothing special but I busy making at least 100 paracord bracelets (Solomon, Trilobite. Fishtail) in different combinations of Purple, Pink & Goldenrod for the local American Cancer Society "Relay for Life" fund raiser in November. Also making Zipper pulls and key fobs from the scraps.  It's a good cause and will hopefully raise a few bucks the day of the relay walk.

Those are fun. Nice PC  :like:

I did a slightly larger one for my Swiss Champ some time back. Underestimated length needed and had to melt-join a second piece. But managed to hide the join away a little in the weave.
