Looks real good. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> Better than what I could do. Mines plain and ugly looking. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> You might also like trying just half of the handle. I think it's slightly better for chopping. But the fusion handles are kind of just... perfection on full tang knives with handle slabs.

I wrapped my skelly warden a few different ways yesterday and I never liked it better than leaving her nekkid. I think you'll have a really hard time with the SD keeping it tight and uniform because of all the curves. I also don't see what you would gain anyway, but it would probably be fun to play with.

I think that would be AWESOME on my Busse Scotch Dispenser!!!!! anyone think that they could do something like that to a scotch Dis. The best knives to put paracord wraps are skellies. With all the holes in the SD you could definitely get a good wrap. If I can wrap my Griptilian, then you should definitely be able to wrap the SD. I mean, I've wrapped my CBK (freaking pain!!!) and it is the coolest PD and very comfortable. You'd probably be able to also wrap the ring and do a strider style wrap. It would insanely comfortable. The only reason I'd get a skellie is to have the fun wrapping it with some paracord and then using it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> For some reason, wrapping knives with cord is fun... so is making lanyards, and etc, etc, etc. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

They make for about as good a EDC blade as i have ever seen. You can carry this thing and it has good cutting power. I also like the fact that you can get a death grip on this piece of INFI. oh yea, and it is made of the BEST - INFI!!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/bowdown.gif" alt="" /> I am more into small little knives you can strap on and go out in the urban jungle with. The big pieces are great but I have no use for them everyday in the urban terrain... So what did I do, went and bought ANOTHER scotch dispenser .. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> All Im saying is ya outta it out. As for wrapping the skelly - Im afraid I will mess it up! But then again I guess if you mess up you can always take it off, huh.

Not the best shots of the wraps themselves, but... I've since redone this one, but don't have a new picture... Same technique as on the DFLE above... I really like the ringbolt hitching like on the YK. I have fairly big hands, so it feels as good as it (trust me) looks. I'll get a new photo up this weekend.

nice wraps, mtrspeed <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />
the top one reminds of when i played roller hockey as a kid. we would take a shoestring and wrap it around the handle of our sticks before taping them to give it extra grip.
