CTR Bracelets

I'm LDS, or a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.  Here's a couple of bracelets that bear a common phrase in my church, "CTR," or "Choose the Right."  It means just what it seems, when you get to make a choice, as we often do every moment of our lives, choose righteously.



These bracelets (as all) are hand-made by me with high-quality 550 paracord, capable of supporting up to 550 lbs and getting you out of a jam when needed.  The lettering is also paracord, woven into the pre-existing ladder knots.  It's a lot of work, but I hope you are well-pleased with the results.  I sell them for $12 (plus $2 S&H).  I have a lot of fun making these.

Dragon's Tongue Bracelets

I just learned to do these today, I will be selling them for $8 each.  They consist of about 10 to 12 feet of paracord.  I have to admit, this just might be my favorite yet.

Paracord-Wrapped Double-Edged Throwing Knives


I've been throwing knives since I was a teenager, they're lots of fun.  This paracord wrap makes your grip on this knife better and extends to a lanyard.  This makes it a great survival knife as well, and is balanced for throwing.    I'm selling this knife for $13 ($3 S&H).  Please let me know if you're interested.

Desert Flower Necklaces

These necklaces bear an abstract resemblance to a flower.  Each consists of about 8 feet of paracord.  I sell them for $4 (plus $2 S&H).

Buckle Choices

I like to carry a variety of buckles to choose from, so here's my current inventory:

SMALL
Colored - Can be mixed or matched for different colored male/female ends
Black - Small black also can be mixed with Colored.

MEDIUM
Black - Contoured to fit the wrist easily.

LARGE
Black - Features a whistle buckle, which can make a very loud high-pitched call for an emergency.

Keychain Fobs

If you're interested in having some emergency cord on you at all times, but you're just not the bracelet-wearing type, here's a good solution for you.  I sell them for only $3 for the short and $5 for the long ($2 S&H).

Custom Watch Bands

Another service I offer is custom watch bands for just $6.  For this, I do need a watch face or (as you will see here as one customer did) some kind of a removable shell such as an iPod Nano band.  This is because I need to lash the cord directly onto it.  I have done all of these orders in person so far, but please let me know if you want to arrange something long distance, and we can work something out.  It should be about $3 to send it USPS, one-way.

My own watch I take everywhere I go
I will never be without 10 feet of cord!

Milipede with Built-in Knife & Whistle Buckle

This is a sort of prototype I made.  It's a bracelet that has a very small leather pouch I made woven into the cord.  The pouch contains a new, brand name X-acto knife, which are of course very sharp.  It is attached to some sturdy hemp twine to keep from losing it, but is completely removeable as well.  You should be able to lash it to a branch and make a handle for your knife, since you also have about 12 feet of cord.  This also features a whistle buckle, of course.

You must be 18 years or older to order.

Monkey's Fist Keychains

These are fun keychains that feature a knot tied around a steel ball bearing.  I currently have one large self-defense monkey's fist (1 1/16" ball bearing) and three minis (3/4" ball bearing).

The minis can be used to tie to a line and cast it easily (to a boat, across a river or to wind around tree branches).  Also a lot of fun to just play with, as the noose knot is retractable.  Also good for emergency cord, as always.  These I sell for $7 each ($3 S&H).

The larger self-defense size I am willing to part with for $12 ($4 S&H).  I really like it.

You must be 18 years or older to order.

I grew up near the beach.  Here's something fun I do with leftover cord of about one foot each.  These have four strands, so four feet total.  I sell them for just $2 each (plus $2 S&H).
