nip wrap

[oge14]

i just got this the other day. this a nice little tool to have around a bonfire while drinking. the only thing i don't like about it is the skinny handle. so i decided to wrap the handle in green 550 cord. this was done with one piece about 15' long. the wrap on the handle is a "cobra" wrap (i alway's called it a double square knot), and the lanyard is a "butterfly stich". it's kinda fitting since the nip is light as a butterfly, and as deadly as a cobra. all in all this took me about an hour. that's wraping, unwraping, and fighting to keep everything to keep everything straght. i think i might start doing the wraping thing on the side. it wasn't really that bad to do you just got to take you time. well the pabst helped to, hope ya'll enjoy. let me know what ya think.

yeah nips are cool.. here are some in hand pics. the grip you get with the cord is awesome. i'm debating on putting a sealer on it or not.
