Hey Guys,

I've been lurking around this forum for a month, thought it was time say hello...

After looking around for a new EDC, I decided on maybe getting an Izula, but after seeing the Warranty and this community of users who stand by this company. My mind was made up.

I went through the "Show us your wraps" Thread to pick out something I liked. :P

I'm in the market for a 6 now, for my Camp Bag...
 
I love my Izula. I EDC it with me at work because I wanted something small but tough. She's definitely a sexy little tank of a knife!
 
Congrats! I think you and I may be the only two who havent sliced ourselves open whilst wrapping the handle... :D

Since you are asking... I say get the 5. That was my first ESEE. It caught my attention when looking for a trustworthy survival knife, something that can be used for the worst situation. I love it.:thumbup:
 
Izzy replaced my Buck 110.

Izula, 4 and Junglas is probably on of the most used combo's. Or just get em all :)
 
Gotta ask how did you finish the wrap?

I did mine like that from the piece of paper that came with my izula, but the finished knot was UGLY.

I used a square not and idk, yours looks good man.

It was kinda tricky... I did the wrap like the instruction sheet. When I was ready to finish, the wraps were loose enough to snake the ends into the center of the paracord wraps(One on each side), I got about two wraps down. I then grabbed a pair of needle nose pliers, and started at the sheath and tightened it wrap by wrap, all the way up till I could sneak the end under a third wrap, then finished tightening. after it was all tight, the ends were sticking out of the wraps. I cut them with some wirecutters as close to the handle as I could, then used the survival instruction card that was included with my knife and tucked the cuts inside the handle.

Hope that makes sense...:)
