Looking for a good lanyard for my new T1A..

subiedriver1990 · Sep 22, 2009

Would anyone here know where I could be able to get a woven-paracord style lanyard? I've seen a few on here from other members and have been unsuccessful in finding any.. The one that came with it is OK at best, too long, and tangles easy. The lanyards I'm thinking of are made from paracord, but woven into kind of a handle. Thanks for any help or direction given. Much appreciated! lovecpf

Can't help with the paracord, though I may attempt to make one, but I can suggest using a simple leather boot lace. I started putting these on many of my lights after seeing it done here at CPF many years back. Mostly I just have short "pocket pulls", but a longer piece of lace could work as a wrist strap. Put some leather conditioner on it and have that well oiled baseball glove smell everywhere you go.

+1 for Stormdrane. He's the master at this, and his blog is incomparable.

Greenled, who is also great, has advertised over in the CFPMARKETPLACE but I don't know whether he's active right now.

And this link will also give you some terrific ideas.
