    Got bored and had some paracord around the house so I did some fancy work. I've only done the front so far as I need to buy more cord. What do you think?

    Items needed:

    50ft of paracord for front and rear handles
    Scissors
    Lighter
    Zip tie to hold in place
    Patience
    Cold Beer

    Looks great. You might get people wanting to send you their handles to have some custom work done!

    Yeah I started doing paracord work when I was underway made a bunch of survival bracelets and sold them. Cobra and King Cobra weaves are easy staters.

    I'll post the weave site at the top for you

    Thanks. Yeah I've seen them before on here and wasn't a fan. It's nice cause you can remove the oh shit handles and work more freely. Door would be a head ache.

    One of the small, fun, and subtle mods to do! Wrapped my a-pillar handles in Coyote brown to match my truck. Did the less ornate method with a standard wrap where you use the paracord to tighten itself at the end.
