Good video one point of constructive criticism use a brighter cord for such a dark knife it is somewhat hard to see the black on black I mean
Absolutely, will def use a brighter cord if I do another one of these knife wrapping videos. Thanks for watching!
This video was for instruction not what he was actually going to use. It’s his knife not yours….
@TigTk421, he’s just showing how to wrap and not what he’s using. I got the point but comments are taken out of context some times.
I was just going to mention this
Thanks for the guidance, Badass Junior. I really appreciate the hard work and letting us (the uninitiated) in on some basics of the art.
Simple and to the point. Thanks man
Thanks for the instruction and tips!👊🏼👊🏼
Nice, simple and well done.
From a visual point of view, better use a paracord which contrasts with the handle and the background, just for pedagogical reasons. Could be green camo or navy teal vs black, does not need to be a fluo pink nor yellow.
If you cut and burn the ends of the rope when it is done, you can hardly undo everything to use the rope separately in case of need and put it back on the handle, so maybe finish the work with an appropriate ending knot.
Thanx for vid. Been trying to remember how to start the last wrap you did. Glad you gave differnt options, that did not include holes in knife blade. I'm wrapping a saw w/a homemade hickory handle, and there are no holes to pass cord through. We'll see how it turns out.
Thanx again.
Thanks dude. I’m getting ready for a backpacking trip and the cord grip came off. This was super helpful!!!
Glad I could help out. Have fun on your trip!🙂
Thank very much. I'm going to be doing this to my matchete, the handle that came with it came off, so I'm going to wrap the tang. I'm thinking I will do the second way you showed us. Then go over it with the first way. To make it more shock absorbing and more comfortable. Thank you again and God bless.
Sounds like a plan! Best of luck and glad u liked the video:)
Well done sir!
Thanks! Glad you liked it😁
Black table next time, maybe some blck gloves? ❤
Thanks man.
Glad you liked the video☺️
good presentation. good safety precautions.
thanks
Good video my brewski. Just a few tips. You might want knot the ends burn the excess and tuck in the excess in the under the lines, let the knots hold the resistance
nice
I'd like to keep it as lightweight as possible, using as little paracord as possible.
What would be the best wrapping technique for that?
Thanks!
Great video good job 👍
Thank you! Very interesting! How to make a handle in three different ways! If only it could be seen! It would be great!
hi, thanx for the video. Next time could you use a lighter colored rope so to see the braiding you are doing better?... better contrast.
-b
Great suggestion, I’ll keep that in mind if I do another one of these types of videos. Thanks!
@@KnifeManual hope u will soon... i'm a beginner.
This need a part 2 just sayin
thanks for showing us those different ways to add a paracord handle. Definitely going to try a few on a few of my knives!! Much appreciated!!
Nice
@@KnifeManual what kind of knifes do you have?
@@KnifeManual nice👍👍
In terms of paracord length, I think the third metod is the best, because you place one end on the knife, wrap it, and you can find out how much paracord you need at the end and cut it there, rather than guessing beforehand.
How would you start the first method if you don't have a hole in your tang?
It would be easier to see if the table was black as well. 😂 I'm kidding! Thanks a bunch for the content.
Thanks for this info. It would have easier to follow if you had your hands at the bottom of the screen (so left is left and right is right), but then I've always been a slow learner when it comes to tying nots lol.
We have the same knife
👍🏻
Hi wish you well with the channel I was really looking forward to this but I couldn't see anything as the paracord was black on black maybe try grey or off white when doing how too videos.good luck man gave ya a like and sub.
which app are you using for editing
Hitfilm Express. It's not the greatest, but it's free and does the job;)
I can add another method to the list if it's a thing to have run out of cord one can splice it in and there's a few ways as well to do it with out taking it all apart if that should happen because it unforseen when you think you got it you come short oh of course there are other ways to figure out exact lengths but nobody is wanting to do math at this point
You may want to us contrasting colours for the knife and parachord...
Where get ur knife?
The sheath is exactly what I did a few years ago btw are you Aussie
Knight Gaming hel no mate!
He obviously isn’t or he’s just really good at faking an American accent lol.
good but more light - black cord and a black handle
Black cord on black handle is very difficult to see, especially with the sketchy camera focus.
Why not make a sheath for that knife
Redo video using a bright color paracord for contrast to better visual . Dark tang with dark rope washes out the clarity on camera necessary to see what your doing. Otherwise helpful
Orange would have been a better color to see the wrap
Hey, nice video, but it would be better if you showed the process from your perspective - from the camera's perspective, left and right are reversed. Also, can you give a few examples on how and what for to use paracord? I've never really been in a situation where I wished I had some paracord, or at least I didn't figure out I could solve the problem with paracord. Anyway, I'm looking forward to your next video, thanks!
Isn’t that a snake knot?
Agree with others...Lighter cord from your angle, and just so you know....the last wrap was hard to follow....You went out of camera view many times. But thanx for the video. 🙂
Use a brighter color that’s easier for the viewer to see what you’re doing. Black paracord on a black handle was not a great choice for a tutorial.
you are using black para cord on a black handle and it makes you presentation invisible
He's full of sugar
Sweet:)
