My decorated sebenza has a blue design on it. I want to compliment it with a blue lanyard. Where can I find such material? I've looked at hardware and boat stores but their nylon lines are too thick or the wrong color.
 
Rod, I've seen some at my local army/navy surplus store. They have a rack of reels with different colored paracord on it. You can also check your local hard-core outdoor supply store, like REI. The camping and climbing sections may yield what you're searching for. I like your idea. My Sebby's aren't decorated, but the blue spacer and thumbstud would look great next to a blue lanyard/fob. Thanks for the idea.

REI, or a Rock Climbing shop, they have 3mm kernmantle in different colors that works great.
 
If you can't find any, shoot me an email. I'll be going to REI this weekend, and am picking some up for myself. I'd be glad to send you some.

Mitch, great link. Thank you. The site shows 4mm as the smallest they have. Since I don't have a metric ruler here at home, does anyone know the diameter of the stock Sebenza lanyard? I'm guessing 3mm, but it's just a guess.
 
I went to REI tonight with the intention of grabbing some blue cord for our Sebby's. Unfortunately, all they had was pink, and pink/blue. I hope I'm not alone in thinking that this borders on blasphemy for a Sebenza. I'll keep looking.

I don't know how good an idea this is, but what about blue shoe laces? I picked up some black shoe laces for dress shoes yesterday (only $0.99) and used them to make a FOB for my Kershaw m-task.
Maybe Footlocker or some other shoe store would have blue?

Thanks to all for some good ideas. But I still haven't found a lanyard of the right thickness and color. Could someone who works at Chris Reeve tell us their source?
