Well I bought another Becker guys. I just can't stay away. This time it's a BK11 and as I don't have money for any micarta scales so I'm just going to use 550 cord. Do you guys have any video tutorials showing how to wrap the handle so the entire handle is covered in paracord. I have looked on youtube but all they have are ones about just wrapping the skeltonized parts of the handle. I want it to span the gaps in the middle of the handle to make a more traditional feeling grip. Thanks for any advice you guys have.
 
No video, but here's how I wrapped my Camillus 11 so that the bottle opener is still accessible. It covers the top and bottom pretty well without gaps.

fairly standard. just review the videos for many knives. choose a style you like. then play.

in some cases, the style you like involves removing the parcord guts. do it.

me? i tie a style, and sometimes almost immediately undo it.

i came up with a wrap a while ago that used a chain sinnet affair, which meant i could easily recover the paracord. figured that was useful.

mostly? if i need paracord, i make sure i have a bundle tucked somewhere... bracelets, wraps, eh. if i need it, i figure i need it RIGHT NOW.

play, it's the only way you'll find a style you like. yours.
