Can you use paracord to create a multi-tool holster?

Creating the Base of the Holster

To create a paracord holster for your multi-tool, start by wrapping two pieces of paracord around the tool in a way that allows for easy removal and adjustment. You’ll need about 3-4 wraps of paracord around the tool’s handle, with about 2 inches of space between each wrap. This will give you a good foundation for securing the tool in the holster.

Securing the Paracord

Next, you’ll need to secure the paracord in place. To do this, make 4-5 half-hitches around the tool’s handle, working your way up from the base of the handle. Make sure to keep the hitches evenly spaced and about 1 inch apart. Once you’ve completed the hitches, take the working ends of the paracord and fold them back towards the tool, then tie a knot to secure them in place.

Adding a Belt Loop

To make the holster more practical, you’ll want to add a belt loop to attach it to your belt. Cut a piece of paracord that’s about 6 inches long and fold it in half. Then, make a series of half-hitches around the folded end of the paracord, working your way down towards the base of the loop. This will create a secure attachment point for the holster. Once you’ve completed the hitches, take the working ends of the paracord and tie a knot to secure the loop in place.
