Have an idea to try braiding up a hawk loop for my belt from some 550 cord. Took a piece wanted to see how it would feel before taking the time to fully do it up. I will be working on it later on and if comes out good will post pics of it

You watch how you go with that, I'd be more incined to make a sheath for the sharp bit first,then a hanger for you'r beltT^

The sheath is in the works soon as I can acquire the leather and a few tools. I mainly wanted the hanger so when switching to a knife I didn't have to set it on the ground or have a log to stab it into I just can't stand putting my tools on the ground. Closest they get to the ground is a log sitting next to me otherwise right back in the bag or my pockets

Oh one more thing this loop won't be for walking around with the tool just during use

LOL right forgot about that. Nope haven't had the chance to do anything to that yet other than to take off the handle. still plan to make a carver out of it just got to many carvings to get out for trades lol
