I received mine this week, too, and I agree - it's a great knife. Mine is the G10/Elmax version I found from another forumer. My Spyderco Native has been my EDC most of the time for years, and I was a bit concerned the 0562 would feel too big in comparison, but that's not the case at all. I happen to really like the clip - it helps the knife just sort of disappear in the pocket and when deployed, it just feels good. And the flipping action - like buttah.

That looks like a Snake knot, nice looking and fairly simple to tie, you can stick the bead(s) anywhere as you go along. This is a pretty good vid on how to tie it. If it comes out too thick looking, you can experiment with gutting all or some of the strings inside the paracord.

On this Cryo instead of leaving the ends cut and burned (which is fine) I finished it with a celtic ball knot.
