Can anybody recommend any resources or tutorials on handle wrapping with paracord or other materials? I'm thinking about wrapping some of my thinner blade handles to make them fit my big hands better. I'm only looking at non-permanant things right now. If I get my Ruck or BATAC done I'll get some pics up on here. The Ruck is probably thin enough to even wrap over top of a layer of something else.

Since you posted that Jim, I removed mine. So that I'm not advertising for the other guys. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

This guy does some really interesting stuff with paracord:
Stormdrane's Blog

Here's the PDF version of the one Jeff posted:
Rewrap Your ... Handle

This method looks very simple; after affixing the paracord, rotate the knife and twist the cords once per flat.

For the BATAC may I suggest some sort of wrapping like this:

Minus the D-Guard, of course, and a little tighter?

Man, that stormdrane guy does some awesome stuff!

Every time I go there I'm glued to the screen for a while, just looking. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
