First attempt at a coin wrap. Will try to make a coin fob next.

Looks super awesome. Benchmade next?

 

[Mr.sig239]

Thanks to one of our members who gifted me with 10 beads! (I won't mention his name unless I receive permission) Thanks again!
Here is the first one of the fobs I have made with more to come as inspiration hits!

 

[Mr.sig239]

Nice coordination of colors.

 

[Mr.sig239]

Nice coordination of colors.

Thanks! It took me quite a while to figure everything out today, with lot's of advice on colors from the wife. She is my best critic! Won't tell me it's nice if it's not!

A couple pages back on June 1 I posted some pics of my large 31 Sebenza with its newly installed Jekyll to Hyde backspacer and lanyard with what, at the time, was a placeholder bead. I've since received the one I ordered for that knife, but have decided the it wasn't really a good match for the knife's blade as its Damascus is overall matte and the bead I received is more than a little glossy. I like the organic look of the Dambenza's bead more and more as it brings a warmer vibe to the knife, so I'll leave it be.

I recently bought some fluted Ti scales for my PM2 and they've totally changed my previously meh opinion of that knife. I added the bead I originally ordered for the 31, sandwiched between a couple of Crown and Diamond knots tied in the length of cord that came along with it from the beadmaker. I've since trimmed the tails a bit, since I left them extra long to start should I decide to swap beads with the CRK.

Here's a pic of the two together taken after I made the Spydie scale swap a little over a week ago.

1 of the 4 I made. Nothing fancy or pretty, but they do their job.

OAL is only just 35 inches, so I can leave it on the knife or multitool when using it. If ever on a ladder or scaffolding again and I drop the knife or multitool I don't have to worry about it hitting the ground/pavement, or worse someone below me. Also prevents setting it down and forgetting it when I go to another area, or losing it when afield. .

 

[Mr.sig239]

My names Phil and I think I have a problem!
Worse part is these are just the ones I kept! (plus there's some missing)

 

[Mr.sig239]

Used up another bead, this one doesn't photo very well. Looks better in person!

 

[ChazzyP]

My XM18 3.5" and this bead have most certainly appeared in this thread before, but I shot of few for its brass hardware today and just like the way this one came out.

 

[Mr.sig239]

Sorry Gary I had to make it my own!

 

[Gary W. Graley]

Looks nice sir, love those beads and your dual colour sets it off great!

[Mr.sig239]

Thanks! Yes, those beads are nice!
Again it looks even better in person. Iphone doesn't capture the detail and colors correctly! The only blue in the pic should be the pliers. It's all purple.

 

[Mr.sig239]

Made a new one for the 111 and also a gift for a friend.

 

[Mr.sig239]

Another bead used and two gifts made.
