I just love these knives and anything green and black just makes it a plus. For most days and most things we do around the house or in town nothing more is needed. i love the 11 and 14. The 16, 2 and 9 are also great but unless im on a special project or in the woods these get the real use.

I know what you mean, my 14 has an OD cord wrap & lanyard on it and stays in my pocket as long as ive got pants on! I dont have an 11 yet but intend on getting one. How is the size of the 11 compared to the 14?
 
I'm a pretty big fan of OD, as well. My girlfriend, on the other hand, says it looks like "baby poop."
 
I love your 11 bro. Its absolutly beautiful, and well thought out. I need to pick one of mine, and have it tricked out.
 
Good lookin knives! An 11 is next on my list. I assume those are the sheaths that come with them???

The 11 is .25" shorter. The 11 is a 3 finger grip and the 14 has almost enough room for a full 4 finger grip

Yes these are the sheaths that come with them.



And thanks Now i just need to grab some more od green paracord, i find that a single strand of paracord is alot less comfortable on the neck than braided paracord. And i will be trying out some micarta scales for the 14. i will try and dye them green and see how they come out. I think the 11 looks better without the micarta and will keep it as is. I really like the paracord wrap look of these knives but ill see what the 14 micarta fuss is about anyway.

Honestly, go to walmart (or your local hardware store) and get pull chain. Pull that through a gutted paracord tube and use that to hold the necker. It makes a WORLD of difference! I really like that, in an EMERGENCY, the chain will pull apart a LOT sooner than a paracord knot will. Less likelihood of strangulation and extenuation. All of my neckers have the pull chain paracord on them.
 
Yea i wore my dogtags on a pull chain in a gutted paracord for years and had thought about doing that before when i first got my 11, but i just never got around to it. honestly im not too worried about strangulation. i am cautious with my activities and if im doing anything where it might be a problem then the necklace is put inside my shirt or in a pocket. I have worn a paracord necklaces for many many years and even climbing thru trees, swimming, rock climbing and more i have never had a single issue of the cord gettin hung on something. Now if it does end up happening i will only be able to blame myself but i try and pay attention to my surroundings. But instead of knots it is easy to simply melt and mushroom the ends of the paracord just slightly larger than the holes. then they pull out with some force alot easier than knots and i still get to keep my 7 strands inside the cord for fishing/snares/shelters ect.
