Miniature Monkey's fists
Got hooked on tying these monkey's fists. Although it takes really good lighting and a whole lot of patience, these little guys are fun to do. Here is a bookmark and key fob made from Military type-1 cord wrapped around a 3/8" ball bearing:

Spool Weave Neck Lanyard with 550 inner core
Here is a neck lanyard that I like to make using a technique found on Stormdrane's blog. The outer spool weave uses approximately 30' of type-1 vest cord with an inner core of about 4' of regular 550-paracord. This one is black with a desert camo core and 2 - 35mm stainless steel McGizmo gate clips. The inner core can be almost any color, but the outer weave is limited to black, coyote brown, OD green, foliage green, or white. These go for $30 shipped.

These come in just about any color from hot pink to olive drab green. $12 plus shipping. Here is a nice black and red one:

Wide Cobra Stitch Bracelet
Here is a rendition of the Cobra Stitch that I call the Wide Cobra. This one has 4 'core' strands that make up the inner core of the bracelet, as opposed to the normal Cobra that uses 2 strands for the core. This one is a nice Black and Tan combo with a 5/8" side release buckle. These go for $18 shipped.
Chain Sinnet Survival Bracelet
Here is the true survival bracelet: The Chain Sinnet. This bracelet is comfortable to wear, lightweight, and can be unraveled to almost 8' of usable paracord in a matter of seconds. That's right. The Chain Sinnet survival bracelet is stitched in a 'zipper' type stitch that can be pulled apart quickly if necessary. These sell for $15 shipped to your door, and can be made in almost any color combo. Here is a nice one in black and tan with a 'knot and loop' closure.

2 Nail Spool weave: Black w/ Emerson Skull
Made this neck lanyard for a customer today. Nice way to show off your ID badge with a little bling. These are a bargain deal and sell for $25 + shipping. Black type-1 cord with a nice Emerson pewter skull and a 35mm stainless steel clip:
2-Nail Spool Weave Neck Lanyard
Made this lanyard on a knitting spool using 2 nails and approximately 25' of Type-1 Paracord. Really like this style as it is small, light, concealable, and makes for a great every-day-carry lanyard for hanging a neck knife or ID badge. This one has an Emerson skull between some snake weave.
And a close up of the skull and snake weave:

Blog Under Construction
Hey Everyone,
Just getting this blog started. I've got a lot of new and exciting things happening in my life these days, and finally decided to get a blog going. Lately, I've been hooked on survival shows like Survivorman, Mantracker, and several 'bushcraft' channels on YouTube. With that said, my main focus is making and selling paracord lanyards of all types. I make bracelets, neck lanyards, key fobs, and survival lanyards containing everything from fire starters to whistles. Hope you enjoy the contents of this blog. Thanks for reading.
Andy
