Still having fun with this one.

[Stormdrane]

I tried one like ghostrider's. I used 9 feet of paracord, coyote tan and desert camo. The loop is about 3 inches and I made the body 2.5 inches before doing the twists back over the round sinnet.

[ghostrider]

Here's a few more. These have between 10.5" and 12.5" of paracord in each one. I'd like to make them shorter (maybe 2.5") with less cord.

[kcardwel]

those are so neat. still been playing with them. do you use only two strands of cord? one green and one black overlapping and start doing the cobra stitch at right angles?

That's correct.

Cool lanyards David, as always

[ghostrider]

Thanks Jano.

Here's a wrist lanyard I made for one of the guys.

[Paul Holtom]

Discovered the site whilst searching Google for lanyard ideas, this thread is just amazing. The level of work is superb and has given me a good few ideas to try, but finding good paracord in the UK is not easy, think an order to the US will be in order.

My first attempts, but more to follow for certain.

Welcome to the forum Paul. Nice work.

Can anyone tell me, when doing a diamond braid or spiral braid neck lanyard in 550 Paracord do you remove the inner strands or not. I am guessing that you do but wanted to ask before I start.

I haven't, but it doesn't mean that you can't. I guess it all depends on how you want it to look (and lay) when finished.

[kcardwel]

Welcome Paul. Like those small beads you used on the cobra stitched lanyards. Nice looking.

What you need Doc is the patented, trademarked, Super-Duper Knot Remover! (pictured below the large Twisted Fist and ruler).



Of course, you’ll need to tie fresh knots tomorrow.

Here's some more I've been working on.
