Detailed Strider cord wrap instructions

[Diamond Cut II]

I can't seem to make sense of the photos on their site. Is the paracord gutted? Do you use two cords? Thank you for your time.

I always thought their instructions wre rather simple.

You use two cords, and can use either gutted cord or whole cord.
Keep it pretty warm while doing your wrap, and when it cools it will pull up real tight... thats the only way I have found to get it as tight as Strider does.

Above and beyond that, ask them.

I've read that dropping the cord your going to work with in warm water until its soaked through, wrapping... then when it dries it shrinks down to size just like a pair of skin tight stone washed jeans

I never did like the Strider wrap... I prefer the Ek wrap, or a plain single cord wrap...

Thank you for the info, guys. I soaked it in warm water after it was wrapped. It turned out fine but did not look as perfect as the Strider. Not bad for a beginner. By the way, the knife was a Kershaw Echo . Looks pretty neat. Thanks again.
