Howdy, this is a blog where I try to incorporate my hobby of using paracord into western tack and other useful projects. I use this blog to provide pictures and descriptions of my work in order to show and educate others who enjoy this craft. Even thought I enjoy tying all kinds of knots, this blog is dedicated to tying and creating actual useful items. I get most of my inspiration from my grandpa, Ashley Book of Knots, things around Pinterest, and Stormdrane.

Key Chain Lanyard with Buckle
A guy the other day wanted a lanyard that he could attach his keys to but also detach they key when getting ready to start his car. I had seen similar things around the internet that used a buckle at the end of the lanyard for this very reason. The lanyard is done with a four strand round braid of alternating colors and then spliced back on itself closer to the buckle. The bottom is done with a simple solomon braid knot. The colors used are white and caribbean blue.

ReplyDeleteWow! That looks great! Also love the color choice ;) Adding a buckle is actually a great idea and it makes it more versatile. If you are interested in learning more knots and techniques, I suggest that you take a look at this great tutorial: http://hikingmastery.com/skills/paracord-keychain.html
ReplyDeleteCustom lanyards typically have a company logo or slogan imprinted onto their straps. They can also have a logo/slogan imprinted onto their retractable badge reel. The non-retractable items may come with a special surface that allows having a company logo imprinted onto it. Personalized lanyards can become a perfect accessory for promotional purposes, as well as they can make for an affordable customized present for anyonehttp://bowhuntingguide.webs.com/apps/blog/show/44383933-satellite-archery-products-determining-draw-length-rustler-hip-quiver
ReplyDeleteAre you someone who has always looked upon the moose as a clumsy, awkward, funny looking, if not down right ugly animal? In spite of the "not very handsome" reputation they have, and probably deservedly so, there is a certain intrigue that follows this "Monarch of the Forest". Maybe a few moose facts will help to surmount the apparent lack of a handsome face, and the awkward look that follows this massive animal. mailhunting
