Simple Paracord Hiking Stick Wrap

Finishing a hiking stick using 17 feet of paracord on a recessed handle. My son picked the multi-colored paracord. If the handle was a consistent diameter, it would have made a very cool pattern.

Good vid, wondered the best way of doing this. at last, a vid showing something I may be capable of!!

Thank you for doing this how to. I have never been good at knot tying and I was both in the Navy and I am Native American lol Go figure. This video is perfect for the project I will be attempting and I so thank you for doing it. The timing of the finding this could not be more perfect.

I tried to do this in a seminar and the instructor gave up on me and took the stick and did it herself. I was happy to find this too!

Thank you. This was great - easy to follow. I also liked that the diameter not consistent - it shows how the pattern evolves. (and, seriously, I cannot believe the criticisms on this thread - you gave us a different option and that's great!)

Nice job. If I might make a suggestion, I would finish it off with "wood Hardener", keeps the rope from shifting around.

Why not at the beginning just take the loose end that will become the wrist loop, bunch it up and lightly tape it to the top of the stick, so it won't keep getting fouled up in the wrapping process? When the wrapping is done, you un-tape the loose piece and go on to make the wrist strap....

Hi! Thanks a lot for this. Is it a good idea to also glue the string to the shaft, in your opinion?

@Palespruce Ай бұрын

As long as you have a tight wrap and your finishing knot is secure, there is no need to use glue.

@Ferndalien 3 жыл бұрын

Missing from the video is pulling the wrap tight with every turn around the stick. Also, you must push the turns up towards the starting turn to make room for more turns. If you don't do these things the wrap will start to slide down the walking stick as you use it. Also, this is a basic whipping wrap; I first learned it as a boy scout decades ago, but this one isn't done in a way that will keep it tight and on the stick. There are other, better examples of this wrap or other walking stick wraps which will hold tight longer.

@CandC68 4 жыл бұрын

Does the cord shrink or expand if soaked in water? If so, would it be best to wrap the handle with the cord either wet or dry? So it will be as tight as possible. Also consider using other weight/diameter cord. Smaller diameter would give you longer length if you needed it for coarse stitching (fabrics - hides). Thicker, like 750 lb break, MILC 5040 Type IV (I think) is almost strong enough to emergency rappel(You have to know your knots), or pull a heavy load.

@user-ll4lf5go1m Жыл бұрын

Dousing the wrap in hot water after done will shrink it up.

@user-ll4lf5go1m Жыл бұрын

Be advised you will need more than 1 foot for the loop at the end. Had to redo mine because 1 foot is way to small.

I usually use 12-18 feed of paracord, depending on how large of a handle are you prefer.

@orlandomorrison4143 6 жыл бұрын

YOU HAVE THAT ALL WRONG,THE CORD THAT YOU WRAPPED AROUND THE STICK SHOULD INSERT INTO THE LOOP AT THE END AND PULL THE CORD AT THE TOP ,WHICH WOULD PULL THE END UNDER THE WRAP , THEN YOU WOULD NOT HAVE TO DO ANYBURNING. I HAVE BEEN DOING THAT WRAP SINCE I WAS TEN YEARS OLD.Orlando.

Wouldn't it have been better if you'd started the other way round, so the knot was at the bottom of the handle grip, I think I'd find it annoying been at the top.

@Ferndalien 3 жыл бұрын

I have used a small hand grinder, a competitor to a Dremel, there are several brands. Carefully mark the staff, and be careful when grinding away wood. It's better to grind away a shallow layer, then another and check the circumference after each pass. It also helps to practice on a short piece of stick before you do your walking stick.

@@Palespruce I never recess the staffs I wrap. A recess will weaken the staff and ultimately defeat the purpose.Tension, consistent tension is the difference in the pattern.

I just can't imagine that this wrap is going to be durable enough to last more than a few uses.

I have done a few this way. It does last if you use a 550 mil spec and if you douse it in hot water to tighten it up when finished.

Not sure about the metal wire. Never used that myself. Seems possible if the wire is flexible enough, but I don't know how you would finish the ends. Solder or some type of simple welding?

@MasterYoist 5 жыл бұрын

Do you mean like using 19-guage twist wire and twist it with 'ye old twist pliers? That'll take a lot of wire and twisting. Even if it looked good, it could be hard on the hands when using the walking stick.

It would have made more sense to finish the wrap as per a Common Whipping (ABoK 3442) rather than leave the end free to slip from the loop and unravel. Multi-coloured paracord almost NEVER makes a "cool pattern" because the cord tension plays a part as well as the diameter.
