Great video, looks nice and good, simple explanation. May I add a suggestion, though? You may want to suggest that you can make a temporary sheath with cardboard or cover the blade somehow ... Even the most savvy can injure themselves with such a sharp blade, specially at the end, when you're focused on the handle. Just a thought.
Thanks for your video 👍 I've seen many videos about paracord on knive flat handle but mine is like yours. Very useful for me 👍 Best regards from Costa Rica ✌
You are welcome! We have a couple more knife handle wrap tutorials on our website with more coming soon! Many of the flat handle wraps will work on a round handle as well. www.paracordplanet.com/handle-wrap-tutorials/
try to put a rope of a smaller diameter under the bottom of it and wind a paracord on it. and then, as you wind it around this loop, tighten the end of the rope. rewind and pull out this whole thin loop, from a thin diameter.
no need to cauterize anything. all ends will be closed with a winding, as you pull out a thinner loop separately. made of thin paracord. and nothing needs to be cauterized.
Ok, Well I Guess im Gonna Be the One Negative Comment On This Video, Or It May Seem Negative And Im Sorry for That But I Gotta Just Say, 1. You Did That The Hard Way, There Is an Easier Method That Allows you To Quickly Unravel Your Cord If Need Be, And 2. My GAWD You Just Made That Knife Handle Huge And Unweildy. Would Work MUCH Better On A Smaller Or Flat Knife Handle.
Correct. The method used here is usually referred to as "alternating ring hitching". Traditionally, this method was used to pad metal rings on boats. It is not a quick-release wrap, but is often used as a handle wrap, nonetheless. You are right though, there are many good quick release wraps can give you usable cord in a matter of seconds. Hollow-handle survival knives are a bit unwieldy even BEFORE being wrapped in paracord :) but this wrap also works well for flat handles. Big, round handles make demonstrations easy. Thanks for the feedback!
@@ParacordPlanet agreed about the handle definitely, and thanks for taking that so well! Personally given my choice between the two I would pick the quick release given it yields virtually the same result but with better deployment, but that's just my personal preference, your tutorial was good overall though!
Not true at all. First, if I need extra paracord, I'll take it out of my6 pocket. The last thing I want as a handle is a wrap that comes unraveled easily. And you'de judging how unwieldy it is without having tried it. She has small hands, and the knife fits her just fine. I have medium sized hands for a many, and there is nothing whatsoever unwieldy about this wrap, even on a handle like the onme in the video. In fact, the knife in this video has a handle that I think is too thin for the way the knife is made. Anyway, I put this wrap on a Ka-Bar Little Brother, on the standard Ka-Bar Fighting and Utility Knife, and on what everyone is now calling the Big Brother with it's nine inch blade.. It worked very well on all three. I've tried the wrap or eight knives, ranging in size from a CRKT neck knife all the way up to a Bowie knife with a fourteen inch blade. It worked fine on every knife I tried. and in a couple of cases did not make the grip thick enough. Paracord just isn't very thick, and most knives, even large knives, come with handles that are thinner than they should be because companies want to see their knives to as wide a demographic as possible. Meaning to men and to women, to big men with big hands, to small men with small hand, and ditto for women. Gone is the time when only men used large belt knives. Thoiusands of women now buy and use belt knives. But the truth is that even large knives have had thin handles for hundreds of years. Only a hundred years ago, men were a good deal shorter and smaller on average than they are today. But the handles have nearly all stayed the same size because everything is about demographics and marketing. The knife in this video is a favorite for all sorts of paracord wraps because it's a bad handle, because a wrap brings it up to a size that's easier to use, and because it just plain looks and feels better with a paracord wrap.
this tutorial helped a lot, just finished my wrap, thanks for uploading!

Great video, just finished my first paracord wrap!
pretty easy and useful, i fixed z hunter machete handle with in 20 minutes
try to put a rope of a smaller diameter under the bottom of it and wind a paracord on it. and then, as you wind it around this loop, tighten the end of the rope. rewind and pull out this whole thin loop, from a thin diameter.
Amazing video
Neat video! doing this on my walking/whacking stick lol
Great video
Great video, very clear thx!!
thank you
Super.una sugerencia traducir al español.super👍
very good thank you
This was very helpfull
best music ever thank yiu
Very simple
What’s the name of that knife or type
plus it is better to do a cobra weave. Also for every inches a foot of paracord for a cobra weave and to be safe, add an extra half foot.
I don't think it's better to do a cobra weave. I prefer this weave for a working knife.
no need to cauterize anything. all ends will be closed with a winding, as you pull out a thinner loop separately. made of thin paracord. and nothing needs to be cauterized.
The English whip is a lot easyer and way faster.
I call that not a larks head

That looks super uncomfortable as a handle.
i put one on my cane and its pretty comfy, the ridge down the middle gives a little extra grip too
That's what I thought, but I tried it and it's very comfortable, and utilitarian.

i wanna see your face. is your face pretyy as your voice?
