Love it! I’ve got some 325 cord that would work perfectly for this.
Would make folders much more comfy on hikes.

Re: Invisible wire clip, good for winter
I'll have to try this with my Q Ball, not sure why I didn't think to do this. I've been doing it for a few years with DIY paper clip pocket hangars for SAKs and other small items. Thanks for sharing :)
Here's what my SAK is currently clipped with -- a paper clip threaded through paracord and bent to shape. I usually clip my Ladybug this way, too. They definitely help prevent scratches if you lean against a surface, car, etc.

This idea reminds me paracord cable organizer from an old youtube tutorialPeaceInOurTime wrote: ↑Fri May 14, 2021 7:39 pmI'll have to try this with my Q Ball, not sure why I didn't think to do this.

DIY knife hack of the year. I certainly have never considered paracord over a knife clip or paper clip for that matter. I would like to possess the patience required to thread enough paracord onto enough wire to wrap a Mule handle.

Peace, this is the next cool idea I'd have never thought of myself!! :)
Should make the paperclip a bit more robust too...
Could you share another pic of how you exactly bend and attach the paperclip?
I just have to try this with my recently aqcuired Vic Rambler... this small thing really can come in handy, but when I carry it loosely in wide, floppy climbing pants pockets (which I wear most of the time) I am always afraid it could fall out unnoticed, tiny and light as it is...
Top three going by pocket-time (update March 24):

-Mountains/outdoors: Pac.Salt 1 SE (H1), Salt 2 SE (LC200N), and also Wayne Goddard PE (4V)

Neat. I think I will try to fit microcord.
