I wish I would have payed attention
in Lanyard Making 101! :eek:

Ok,I used my imagination and imagined I wrapped
a beautiful job on fantastic sheath.
You can imagine it for yourself,
Im sure I won 1st place!
(if not,your not using your full imagination)

Need my address for shipping? :D
 
I'll go way out on a limb BEFORE the rules/contest are even posted :D

how to incorporate your sheath as a functioning part of your kit (besides it's primary purpose of keeping your knife handy and it and you safe)

I took my Landi PSK and wanted to use it in a neck carry. I wanted to insure it wouldn't strangle me in a fall/tumble so I found a little plastic piece that is tough, but not nearly as tough as the cordage so it would break first. I'm using 2 mm Spectra cord as it's in the 200 # range, which is plenty for it's intended use as cordage for lean-tos, debris shelters, etc. It's lighter and you can carry more for the same volume.

I wrapped ~ 15' of the 2 mm stuff around the sheath, within that wrapping I secreted a small 3/16" firesteel. I added a Fox micro whistle and Photon light. I found them rattling a bit, a small ranger band cured that.

I wanted to insure the knife would not come out (it probably wouldn't as the kydex is well molded to the knife, but an extra safety measure) so I made a short lanyard w/ a plastic toggle that can be secured over the sheath preventing the knife from coming out.

the entire kit (knife, sheath, cordage, light, whistle, lanyard/hardware) weighs a svelt 4.7 oz

now if I happened to entirely miss the point of the contest I'll simply edit my post so I don't look like an idiot, but if I haven't- points for putting the clues together- here's hoping for the latter :)

MTWarden, close, in that you have a sheath and some paracord, but not quite what he's looking for.

I know what it is, if you all have been paying attention you would too. :D I could link to all the posts that discuss this topic, but I'll let you all have some fun.

You know some of it, but you may be surprised...



Just a couple hours away....

BTW - I will not post it in this thread, I will post a new thread, and link to that thread here....

Is it going to be all time sensitive, like Busse's Ganzaaaaaa...
Or will we have some time to play with the idea?

Does it involve decoratively wrapping your existing sheath. Still guessing here, but haven't found any threads that shed light yet, and I'm up to pg 27
 
Man I'm slow!!

Took me a while but I think I found it. I'm off to get started with my brightly coloured cordage :p.

I should send him the first one I built before the good one....

No, I couldn't do that, someone might take a picture, and I would be haunted forever by it....


Jim - You still snowed in?
