In Ranger School my pace cord was a simple bootlace tied to my jungle fatigue top button hole about 14 inches. I would tie an overhand knot for every kilometer if I was the pace man. Would have used this if I had it. It was 1973.

Instead of a double snake knot, I used a diamond knot between sections and the end because it's more symmetrical but for the beads I used the same knot you described. That's a nice torch you're using. I finally got tired of burning my thumb with a regular Bic lighter and got the grilling lighter instead that has a pistol grip and no more burned thumb. I use regular scissors to cut the ends and leave a scissor blade thickness left to melt which turns out to be the right amount, most of the time I can get a nice dome effect when I melt the ends. Found out real quick that you don't have to get too close to melt the ends, about an inch or two away is just right without damaging anything else. After I'm done, I'll quickly put direct flame over the entire project for about a second or two just to set everything in place. It doesn't damage anything, just melts the micro threads from any abrasions while working the paracord.

These beads look sick on my red&cream nunchucks' string. Definitely tricky to cinch up at first, but don't give up and you'll be armed with a neat decorative knot.

How do you know if you traveled 100 meters or miles?
@martinmiller10872 жыл бұрын
Find a measured 100 meter, or measured 1 mile spot. A school race track works well. Then using your normal gait, count the number of paces it takes to walk 100m or 1mi. Do it several times and use the average. That's your number of paces/100m, or paces/1mi. ... You'll need to adjust the numbers for walking in brush, sand, water, steep hills, etc.

I've already made mine months ago! Only I ADDED two more beads! To both where they were 4, on mine there's 5, and where there's 9, mine has 10! Plus I made an EXTRA 5 beads, incase I needed more counters, when walking a very long trail! Only I used, when first making it?! The "Diamond knot!"
@1BeGe2 жыл бұрын
Put as many on the top as you want. That's for every 1k you might go. That's for extra distance. The 9 is a specific necessary amount though. The whole point is to go through 9, then on your next you're out of beads, so you know you're at the next 1k mark and reset the 9 and move another of the 1k beads instead. Putting 10 there means you end up counting every 1100m instead of every 1000m and you're just gonna be wrong on your count.
