Bullet shell lanyard

That looks fantastic! I anodized a bead “blurple” to match the somewhat worn blue accents on my PJ small Sebenza and left the stock lanyard and bead on my knife art large Sebenza. I’ve been thinking about adding another small with Bog Oak inlay, but wasn’t sure about the gold anno on the thumb stud and lanyard pin. I put RGT TiMascus pocket clips on CRK’s to avoid scratching the steering wheel with the stock pocket clip getting into, and out of, my car. This may have just pushed me over the edge in terms of adding the small Sebenza with inlay. Between the brass, the anno, and the RGT TiMascus clips with bronze anno that are available it would look fantastic in the pocket slip for work, or clipped to the pocket for those times when the large would get looks. Thanks, open BladeForms, see pictures, light another $750 on fire!

I joined thinking I would post pictures, and was initially frustrated that I couldn’t upload directly. I don’t do social media and don’t have the time to track another thing to sign up to, nor do I want to devote a day to sorting out imgur or whatever it is. Now I see that it is very good it is not easy to include pictures. In fact, more and more I think it was an intentional decision to save us a bit of money…
 
Here's something new with something old--my just acquired SHF Flourishes with the Ultem bead I've had on my Crooked River for a long time. I wanted to use black 550 for the tail, but found I didn't have any in my stash. I went to the plain gray with a couple of Crown and Diamond knots which I couldn't remember how to tie correctly--had to go back to the Weavers of Eternity vid to get them right. I used to be able to tie these in my sleep, but it's been a while....

That bead came from an old friend, member and maker Inspiribomb Inspiribomb , who hasn't ben seen around these parts in a few years. He suggested I add the o-rings to the bead's grooves and I liked the look a lot. I used an overly large Butterscotch Micarta bead I've had for a while to replace what I took off the Crooked River. I got it along with a couple others from a maker at the Artsy Craftsy site who does nice stuff that's generally both really big and fairly expensive and it's sat unused waiting for an appropriate home. I added black o-rings to this one too as it seemed way too plain by itself and it's a good color match for the knife. I kept the same black cord, but it was too short to successfully replicate the original Crown and Diamond knot so I settled for a couple Snakes after the bead for now.
