Tying Too Many Salmon Flies!
« on: September 28, 2008, 05:56:00 PM »
Deer season sure is slow in coming to Massachusetts.  While everyone else is hunting, I'm still Atlantic Salmon fishing and tying up flies.  Guess all those fly tying knots are starting to carry over into my knives too  :)   Doc

Would it be possible for you to post some pictures of the paracord wrap handle, during installation?  I like the look and functionality of the paracord and would like to try one for myself.  Also were do you get the different colored cord?

Thank You
Bill

Gotta love it   :thumbsup:   Really like the beer blades.  They are kinda like an after hunt multi-tool. Skin you kill and then go have a celebratory drink.

Yep, the "knot-a-long", Doc - did your wife decide to stay in France - or did you break the camera - LOL

(Referring back to his original post on these fine knives and talk of his doing a pictorial on the Paracord wrap, folks - and just picking on him of course  :D  ) Still looking good, Doc!
