Ian.

Funny Ian, we use the same medicine here, just a different dispenser!

Awesome pics. I'm really digging the lanyard on your 5-11....Can you offer any instructions on how to make one? I've made some lanyards and bracelets out of paracord but just the standard cobra and double cobra style.

What camera do you use for your pics? It takes nice photos. Any post processing or are these right out of your camera?

Thanks for sharing the great pics! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Hiya KnotSlip... My Mom was seriously into making Macrames when I was a youngster and because there's alot of repetition I'd end up finishing many of them off for her and that's where I learn't this knot. Unfortunately I don't have a clue as to what it's called. I have however included some pics of how it's done and how I started it around the knife blade...









It's basically just 2 pieces of paracord but when wrapped around the blade you'll end up with the 4 pieces you'll need to start the knot.







As for ending it, 2 ends of the paracord I forced past each other through the hole in the handle and then just knotted them and then burn't their ends so they wouldn't fray. The other 2 I just ended off with a loop of sort to put my hand through with a reverse Hang Mans Noose to end it. I'm often high up or in a tree and the last thing I want to do is drop my knife.







And then lastly I have included a pic of the camera I use. This camera is literally bullet proof. It's been kayaking, surfing, diving, bush whacking... You name it. The camera is manufactured by Panasonic and as far as I know they have a newer model on the market. It's the DMC-FT2. As for the pics they are just as they were taken by the camera. It's got stacks of excellent features and these pics were taken on the 'WARM' setting...

Cheers KnotSlip, enjoy...

thanks for sharing

Awesome! Thanks for the great info. Those Lumix cameras are great little cameras. I'm planning to buy a smaller camera and was considering either a Lumix or the Canon Powershot S95.

I will definitely give the lanyard a try and let you know how it goes. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Thanks again! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I will try to put one on my b10Le If I got it last night

Thanks for sharing the pictures. When you got down to the stream my first thought was snake country. When looking at the old tree house and you mentioned some young kids built it, I got to thinking maybe some African constrictor got them. Like Skunk, all snakes are dangerous and that I'll hurt myself trying to get out of there way.

Maybe they got the constrictor... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />
