Rope Weave

[arijer]

Sorry to bug you all, tried to run a search and came up empty.

I have seen some guys pics of their Izula with the rope woven around it. How do you do that? is there a link to where I can learn to do that?

thanks

There are few videos on you tube demonstrating how to. Just do a search for Izula cord wrapping.

At the bottom of this page on RC's website for the Izula, they have a You Tube demonstration of how to do it. Good luck.

my Izula came with the paracord and instructions, but I just try different methods till I find one that looks good.

I think that is how a lot of the good ideas were brought up. People trying what might work and it ends up looking awesome.

Yes but it still isn't easy.

Tell me about it.

Now I have to wait for the Izula I ordered. Oh and the HEST I ordered, and the Tank Buster I ordered.... and yes I have a problem, but I love my problem. NEED MORE PRETTY KNIVES. LOL

And need to chop some stuff up so they wont be so perty

just so you know for reference most of us use "paracord/550 cord" it's what the military uses for lines on parachutes, 550 pound test, this will help in your searches and for purchasing. Usually goes for about 8 bucks per 100 feet online, check your local surplus shop. It's as handy as duct tape, everyone should have a spool or two

:thumbup: It makes excellent laces for boots/shoes.

the izula comes with paracord and insturcitions so it isn't hard, i think

Check these guys out:

They have many colors and the package made it to Europe in one week, so I guess it will be a lot faster inside the U.S.

Here's the wrap I recently invented while I was at work.

That's cool. It's like a basket weave.

Most of us RAT Packers with post counts over 300 just in the RAT forum section are so hardcore that we were just born with the instinctual knowledge of how to cord wrap everything we see.

I think I have wrapped my Izula 20 times since I got it, I ordered a bunch of different colored paracord, and I usally try different wraps at night while watching TV or reading on this forum.
