Thanks gentlemen! ::handshake:: ::super_happy::

@ Dan: Patriotic Fabrics, (my mom & Jim from Texas sent to me) some imitation leathers & the black one is a real cool fabric that feels a bit like rubber. Kinda like a wet suit. ::tu:: If you have someone to sew them together for you, I could send you a couple of them in a card. Just have to let me know. ::tu:: ::handshake::
Once sewn together, you just have to trim the top lid flap a bit and add some self adhesive pieces of velcro. Easy! ::nod:: I guess 95-99% of knifers don't care to use them but I like em to protect my knives from scratches. I have about ::shrug:: 20-25 of them now I guess. Different sizes & colors. It's fun to me to pick them out when I pick out my EDC's. ::nod:: ::super_happy::

Added a tan leather hangman's knot or hangman's noose lanyard to my new little Lindner Solingen 3" Lock Back knife. Should look a little bit nicer once it get's carried & broken in some. ::nod:: ::tu::

Thanks for looking friends! ::handshake:: :D

Thanks John! ::handshake:: I thought of you when I tied it this morning. ::nod:: I thought..., ::hmm:: "Sure wish I had some wooden beeds like John has to put on this lanyard." But I asked my girls & nobody had any. ::smirk::
Oh well, it fits great in my watch pocket! Been carrying it today. ::nod:: ::tu::

Good Choice and design Tom. ::tu:: Is a great match to the pattern of the knife and the tone of the wood handles. ::nod::

I suspect many of you lanyard guys already know how to do this, but I have always been amazed and mystified by how the "Mystery Braid" was made.

Here's a tutorial that makes it look much easier than I thought it would be. :)

Easy peesy lemon squeezy!! ::nod:: :D
