Cord Wrapped Sheaths?

[Guyon]

Who else does 'em?
I played around with wrapping my EsKabar sheath the other night.
Here's what I came up with.

I used the same "melt-the-ends" strategy I used before on my Remora.
Keeps the fuss of knots down to a minimum.

There are two lengths of cord shown below.
One is the main wrap which is meant as a storehouse for cord should I need it.
The other is my functional belt loop. As shown, it works best in a horizontal carry position.
For vertical carry, the belt loops are a bit large.
But it occurred to me this a.m. I could easily slip the loops under/through some of the wrapped cord and adjust for any vertical play. :thumbup:

Not exactly what you have in mind, I think. but my BK2 rides my belt via paracord...

The photos are dark but you can see the cord there.

Cool. No, that's exactly what I meant. Belt lashings, pack lashings, anything where paracord is used on the sheath... :thumbup:

Me, ME, ME I always have a ton of para on me and my knives. I can't make natural cordage very well, stupid hand won't learn well since I rearranged all the bones in my right hand.

BK14 and 7' of para on the handle, holding in my firesteel. My EDC setup.

My Bk11 sheath has two layers. Paracord is very Useful for me because like moose said I'm all that skilled at natural cordage.

I wrap pretty much wrap all my sheaths:thumbup: I can never have enough paracord in my mind

Apparently I like "Woodland Camo" Sorry for them not being Beckers, but they are wrapped

I really dig how you did that. I did something similar to that on mine. I'll have to take a pic and post it later.

Great idea for a thread!

Ok here is what I did. I did it this way so I can carry it on my belt in all different positions and both sides.

I put a little orange on my Mora sheath to improve visibility in the event its dropped in the woods. just a simple whipping:

Good ideas and pics. Looks like you get get a few benefits from carry options, extra para cord (always needed) to storage.
