cord wrapped hest?

[Tin.Man]

just curious how some of you guys did it?

when I tried doing it similar to my izzy_ there was a half an inch gap from top of handle to the sheath.

pictures would be great if you guys have them

It could be neat, but I'm a fan of the storage in mine

I've done it. There should be photos on here. I'm on my phone, but search my name and hest. I had to bare wrap before the hole a bit, and then the lanyard holes atthe bottom finished it nicely.

I'm with you on this one...that's one of the main features I bought this knife for

Those look awesome! I prefer the scales on the HEST, but love a wrapped Izula.

Diz your awesome man thank you! I posted a visitor message for you btw, May I ask how you started that yellow wrap, Ive been looking and looking and cant quite get my head around it.

Thank you

Yea I was probably hammered when I did it. I just got the cord, found the halfway point, layed it over, and wrapped it a couple times. Then I put it in the hole, and started the weave.

I'm not usually one for brightly colored handles or paracord, but this one with the yellow really pops.......

That throwing HEST is corded.

Decent wrap there... guess the guy knew how to do one thing right.
Still a moron though.

What's cool is the little silver flakes are reflective. Not a big deal during the day. Hit it with a flashlight at night and it really stands out.

where is a good place to order that yellow reflective paracord?

 

[Dizwolf]

I've looked all over. ebay is the only place I've found it. it comes in other colors.

search for reflective 550.

at night, it REALLY lights up when a flashlight is on anywhere in the area.

Good selection, brutal pricing. $315 for a 1200' spool is steep.

Yeah it is. Their pricing on non-reflective para is much cheaper. ~$100 for 1,200'. I keep meaning to buy some.
