That's cool. I like the look of that snake knot. I'll bet it wast tedious to keep the colors lined up all the way to the end. Great work!
42" Monkey Fist...
I just finished up this monkey fist tonight....It's 42" long from end to end, and has a 1" steel ball. I used exactly 50ft of cord for this one. Weave is a continuous snake knot with a small cobra weave at the end.
Just curious as to what you would price this at. Any input would be great! Thx!

Looks good. $25-30 would be a fair asking price for one of those.
I made one a few months back that is similar in length and by using a 1 inch steel ball. I made mines with a 4 strand round braid and its designed to be worn as a lanyard then in a pinch taken off and pulled snugged around the wrist to be used for self defense. (To see how it looks as a lanyard click on Paracord Projects at the top of the forum).

Just finished this one for my Mom. It's her Mother's Day gift. She has used a small strap f leather attached to her keys, and left hanging out of her purse to make key retrieval easier. It's time to update and upgrade her method.

Oh ok. I made a 6 inch long monkey fist keychain a couple months ago for my mom using a 5/8 inch steel ball. I showed her the one I had on my keys then I demonstrated it on a nearby box and I told her I will make her one in her choice of two colors.
This is mines. I used the purple because it was some scrap from a belt I made my daughter. The one I made for my mom looks exactly alike. The only difference is the colors which hers is black and red.

I made my wife a shorter (about 6") with a Woden ball out of pink and black. I'll be making her a longer one with the 1-1/2" steel ball for scull cracking soon. I'll make mine out of black and dark grey to carry while at work.
I like the look of yours. Those colors look surprisingly good together.
Made one for my girlfriend with a 5/8" steel ball. Over all about 10"

Just finished these two.

And this one is my Noggin Knocker. I used a 1-1/2" Steel ball, into a four strand round braid. I attached the key ring with a crown knot, and finished it off with a snake knot. Over all, it's about 2-1/2' long. Also in Black and Titanium... You know... For Tactical Reasons. lol
