Mule cord wrap and sheath

[dsmegst]

Hey guys,

I finally got one of my mules done and figured I'd share the results. :D





I fattened out the grip a bit with an extra layer of paracord under the wrap. The width of the handle is slightly over 3/4 of an inch thick in the middle and provides a fairly comfortable grip. The sheath is .093 kydex. I find that the edges of the knife is too sharp and wore down the compression point so the retention is not where I want it but it's still tight enough for light and medium duty.

Very nice, and just in time for halloween.

So, you wrapped through the whole for an underlayer, then did the Strider wrap over top.

Nice, looks good.

Exactly. I wanted a thicker handle for grip and it was the best way to do it. It also hides the joint of the two cord strands so it looks clean from the outside. I wish I could have gotten the two sides a little more even though. I didn't see it until I was finished but the left side has 11 knots and the right side has only 9. I looks a bit lopsided from the top.

When the next mule comes out, I'm going to do a few more. Thanks for the comments!
