One inch fist, with snake weave

2011-08-26T16:17:00.000-07:00

Really like this one. Real attractive fist and weave combo I think. Uses a fuzzyedge custom bead.

Sinnet with striker and ferrocium rod inside

2011-08-19T19:25:00.000-07:00

Crown sinnet style fob holding something

2011-08-15T20:53:00.001-07:00

I cleaned up the ends so no core is showing...you can put things such as firesteels, money rolled up, etc. in the center.

Super fists

2011-07-03T22:33:00.000-07:00

These have been real popular. 1" steelbearing, lanyard knot with extra cord through it to start a diamond weave to a snake weave and hook.

Super fists

2011-06-12T17:05:00.001-07:00

About 12" total length with a 1" ball bearing inside using a diamond weave and snake weave.

Rune Stone knot lanyard

2011-05-25T21:57:00.000-07:00

Great looking neck lanyard you can use for about anything; hook can come off of the split ring to accept another type or nothing at all. Really like the great looks but simplicity of this one. Email for costs.

Nice wrap to my Diaz frog leg necker

2011-05-21T08:14:00.000-07:00

Another pic of the ripcord

2011-03-27T22:26:00.001-07:00

Ripcord bracelet

2011-03-27T22:07:00.001-07:00

Neat bracelet in the fact it holds at least 12' of cord that you can unravel with just one pull. About the size of a king cobra bracelet. Easy to understand how to make but a little harder to keep the slip knots close to the body of the bracelet as you make it. Used the knot and loop method for connection.

Double solomon bar keeper

2011-02-01T12:12:00.000-08:00

Like the looks of this weave...good key fob.

Slatt's rescue bracelet

2010-09-15T23:44:00.001-07:00

This one uses about 10' of cord and would serve well for a rescue cord since it can be easily pulled apart in second.

Snake belly bracelet

2010-09-15T23:43:00.001-07:00

Thermos Koze

2010-09-14T07:53:00.000-07:00

Will not make these to sell but was a neat project to accomplish.

Spoolweave on a firesteel

2010-03-12T11:22:00.000-08:00

Really like this...especially since you can take the lanyard off the firesteel if you like. Very nice combo.

River bar bracelet

2010-03-09T22:52:00.001-08:00

Fun bracelet and easy to make.

Spoolweave tactical keeper

2010-03-09T19:39:00.000-08:00

Type 1 cord weaved around toxic green 550 cord that has a gitd tracer in it. Pull pin black snap-lock and a 35mm clip on the other end.

Koze

2010-02-20T13:46:00.000-08:00

This is not for sale first of all...really a time consuming adventure but satisfying upon completion. Used about 30 feet of od cord.

Beauty of a gold and black necker

2010-02-18T23:13:00.000-08:00

Really like this color combo...little longer than most of mine but was requested for a referree.

Strider boot skull bead in bracelet

2010-02-18T23:10:00.001-08:00

super bead and one I slid on the inner cords first...it lies even with the weave this way.

Smaller Dog--leash

2010-02-15T15:36:00.001-08:00

Made of reflective cord throughout for a smaller dog...4 1/2'...snake weaves, chinese button knot, turks heads and a whistle on the end. The orange turks head slides for a wrist lanyard.

totally tactical keeper

2010-02-07T07:54:00.000-08:00

Nice way to keep keys, knives, flashlights secure in and out of your pocket.

Square spool stitch bracelet

2010-02-01T22:03:00.001-08:00

this one would fit around 7 1/2" to 7 3/4" wrist and goes for $20 using forest green 550 paracord.

Reflective Cross

2010-01-28T12:44:00.000-08:00

Cross made with reflective type 1 paracord.

Black spool weave necker

2010-01-22T20:08:00.001-08:00

This is made of type1 paracord taking 33' total to complete with two snake stitches going toward each other at the end. Not sure what price I would put on it yet but can't charge the normal neck lanyard price because of the work that goes in to it. The diameter is identical to a diamond weave 550 cord normal necker.

Black one for sale

2010-01-19T08:29:00.000-08:00

These are tough key fobs...black one is for sale for $7...very stiff and sturdy using regular 550 cord with a spool

Bead keeper

2010-01-18T17:00:00.000-08:00

Really like this idea of using core out 550 cord to go through a bead around and back through making it secure yet not even tying a knot. Still highlights the bead.

Nice spool weaved od bracelet

2010-01-11T23:42:00.001-08:00

This one measures about 3/8" in diameter and is just right for a medium to small size bracelt. With the round construction it fits like a glove. think this one is my favorite.

Close up of spool knit necker

2010-01-07T16:48:00.001-08:00

This braid uses three nails with cord that is a little bigger than type 1 paracord. Makes a very flexible and lightweight but strong necker.

3 Nail spool weave key fob

2010-01-04T21:43:00.000-08:00

Very attractive weave a lot of times used for necklaces but these would be pretty stiff for that and make awesome key fobs.

Snakeweave bracelet

2009-11-08T13:28:00.000-08:00

Really a colorfull bracelet with a nice snakeweave. Actually looks like a snake coiled up kind of.

Chain sinnet style bracelet part 2

2009-11-01T22:28:00.000-08:00

The second part of the chain sinnet bracelet; remembering you need to cut the two ends coming out of the lanyard knot and melting them to adhere to the knot.

How to make a chain sinnet style survival bracelet. Part one

Sling with stitched pocket

2009-09-25T19:30:00.001-07:00

Takes a while to get the pocket stitched and making sure you loop(in this case) the black cord at the ends before cinching things up to be tight so you can braid the rest of the sling.

Flat lanyard knot bracelet

2009-09-22T13:19:00.001-07:00

Easy style of bracelet to size with a regular lanyard knot at the end and flat lanyard knots in between with a chain sinnet with loop to start the bracelet out. You work from right to left in the bottom picture.

Sling with loop

2009-05-29T21:26:00.001-07:00

About 28-29 " from center of pouch to knots using herring bone weave and a slide knot on one end.

Sling or bolo

2009-05-05T20:57:00.000-07:00

Nice style of neck lanyard

2009-04-20T22:56:00.001-07:00

Bling Bracelet in King Cobra

2009-04-20T22:53:00.001-07:00

Used 6 anodized titanium emerson skulls in this bracelet interwoven in the inner core.

celtic cross

2009-03-29T08:13:00.000-07:00

Nice use of cord to make an attractive wall hanging.

Bicolor bracelet

2009-02-04T10:04:00.000-08:00

These are made from the opposite direction of the one color style but I think they look quite nice in two colors.

Emersons in a blanket

2009-02-04T10:02:00.000-08:00

Like the way these turned out. Have a flint rod embedded inside of them making them very stiff and the skull looks cool at the end I feel too.

Sinnet has a turks head at the bottom to hold strands together.

Kringle Again

2008-11-13T19:57:00.001-08:00

This is a beaut using 8mm rope. Notice the pentagon in the center.

Kringle mat

2008-11-10T23:00:00.000-08:00

Not too hard to make but confusing connecting the five parts at the end.

Chain sinnet bracelet

2008-10-01T19:16:00.000-07:00

This bracelet is a little narrower than the regular bracelt but not much. Still uses the knot and loop for securing.

Wild colored king cobra

2008-08-24T22:32:00.000-07:00

Little grapes

2008-07-05T09:35:00.000-07:00

These monkey fists are always fun to make but yet a challenge too. Two ladder rack knot lanyards mixed in.

New style of bracelet

2008-06-06T08:09:00.001-07:00

Not sure if I will make any more of these but is really different in its stitching. Uses a josephine knot.

Big 'ems

2008-06-02T08:30:00.000-07:00

These skulls are about an inch long. The king cobra stitching has a flint rod embedded in them to make it extra stiff and of course, useful if you had to start a fire.

My camo bracelet

2008-05-22T22:14:00.001-07:00

Nice new camo that has more subtle color combo. Really like it.

4 strand braid ending in double lanyard knot

2008-05-21T16:59:00.001-07:00

Measures about 9 1/2" not counting the key ring. fun little braid that would make a nice lanyard.

Different style of bracelet that uses half hitches on each side.

Defender fobs

2008-04-25T19:44:00.000-07:00

Different monkey fob

2008-04-16T10:46:00.001-07:00

A little different monkey fob in that it uses a lanyard knot between the fist and the snake weave. Makes a real attractive fob this way. Could be used for a knife as well as key ring.

Neck Lanyard

2008-04-15T15:50:00.000-07:00

Stylized kubatons

2008-03-25T08:12:00.000-07:00

New keeper lanyard

2008-02-27T11:57:00.000-08:00

This one is unique in that the lanyard knot shown will slide up and down the cords allowing you to cinch the lanyard to your wrist for security or it is just fun to put the knot in a differernt place!

Have a heart

2008-02-03T08:13:00.000-08:00

Made with shaped 18 guage wire and red paracord measuring about 3 1/4" by 3 3/4".

All black and white

2008-01-31T17:31:00.000-08:00

Customer came up with this design and I really like it.

Mini monkey fist key fob

2008-01-29T12:04:00.001-08:00

Measuring all 3 1/2" this makes a great key fob. Using type 1 paracord it is very intricate but very tough at the same time. Took me way too long to make this with 5 weave monkey fist but came out great.

new kubaton prototype

2008-01-28T14:38:00.000-08:00

Very secure cordage with super glue added in strategic areas. Use a stairstep weave which makes the grip really good.

Bracelet shining in the dark

2008-01-17T09:27:00.000-08:00

Same bracelet as below but glowing in the dark.

Glow in the dark bracelet

Nice fit for the Emerson skull between the stitiching with the flint rod inside it and the monkey fist.

monkeyfist bookmark

2007-12-20T18:06:00.001-08:00

This is a cool bookmark that uses two colors and a 3/4" ball bearing and on the other end a lanyard knot.

New style with monkey fist

2007-12-06T17:50:00.000-08:00

This is the first time I have used the reflective cord in a monkey fist. Turned out real nice.

Larger monkey fist

2007-11-28T11:40:00.000-08:00

This is one of my finer works; monkey fist uses a 1" ball bearing and and loose snake weave for the stitching and a nice hook at the end.

Adjustable key fob

2007-11-26T22:59:00.001-08:00

The snake weave can move up and down on the core to make the fob look different. Cool feature I came upon more by accident. Really like it.

Double Carabiner Lanyard

2007-11-14T18:57:00.001-08:00

nice lanyard that attaches to your belt loop very easily but stays on secure. Stitching is loose snakeweave which makes it very flexible. Key ring on the end can be removed and the loop can easily go in a knife hole.

Great Fob

2007-11-05T20:47:00.000-08:00

Nice way to hook on to something and put your keys on the other end. About 7" long with the snake weave and lanyard knot.

orangeblack monkey fist

2007-11-04T23:51:00.001-08:00

These are a pain to make but worth it in the end.

Larger monkey fist

2007-10-19T22:06:00.000-07:00

This one uses a 3/4" ball bearing and is a little hefteir than the others but would make a great fob.

Halloween lanyards

2007-10-18T19:05:00.001-07:00

Fun little guys using a double cobra weave with a facsimile of type 1 cord.

New skull lanyard

2007-10-16T10:33:00.001-07:00

Nice sterling silver skull with movable jaw. Could be used for key fob or knife lanyard.

Two monkey fists

2007-09-25T08:41:00.001-07:00

Using two colors in a monkey fist is always a challenge but making one where no ends show is also a little hard. Got an example of both here.

New style with emerson

2007-09-25T08:38:00.000-07:00

Customer wanted the Emerson placed in between the two knots and with a glowpull on the end.

chinese emerson

2007-09-16T20:17:00.001-07:00

Chinese staircase of grey using miltec1 on 550 cord with an Emerson skull hanging on the end. Like the classy look.

Chinese staircase and dual color monkey fist

2007-08-31T22:27:00.000-07:00

The monkey fist has two colors which makes it very difficult to get it even followed by a chinese staircase which are fun to make with a Smuktelli skull and loop. This one is not for the restless to try!

Triple cobra

2007-08-11T17:33:00.001-07:00

Using miltec1 cord in a darkgreen camo and three passes for the cobra stitching with a lanyard knot and half-hitch at the bottom rounds this one out nicely. Not sure how many feet I used.

Burgundy and tan lanyard

2007-08-10T11:52:00.001-07:00

Really like this color combo of burgundy and desert tan with the tadgear skull at the end.

Triple duty lanyard

2007-07-10T22:52:00.001-07:00

Cool lanyard that has a lot of capabilities. Kubotan, firestarter, survival lanyard, key lanyard or knife lanyard. Total length is about 6 inches including loop.

Bracelets

2007-06-04T11:14:00.001-07:00

Good comparison of bracelets of the same size; from top to bottom; normal with core, half-hitch, king cobra without core and king cobra with core.

Neck Lanyard

2007-06-04T11:11:00.000-07:00

Neck lanyard in the center is a new style I have made with the simple three braid stitch using brass wire to adhere eveything together at the bottom and a hangman's noose knot with clip.

Suspended skull

2007-05-16T18:12:00.000-07:00

Really like this one made for a very special person. Skulls eyes glow as well as using reflective black cord.

Yellow&black monkey fist

2007-05-14T15:52:00.000-07:00

Nice yellow and black one for a fireman.
