Monkeys Fist
Jun 24^th, 2018 at 10:51am

Monkey’s fist keychain lanyard with a twist: pull the pin (like a grenade) and the lanyard instantly unravels to give you an extra meter of reach or so. It’s use would be similar to nunchaku or a rope chain., but I actually find it useful as a tool for hanging a bag on a tree, tossing a line over a tall branch, or just to have a little spare cordage in my pocket. It’s about half a meter long as shown in the photo, but there’s 6 or 7 meters of paracord in there all together (not including the monkeys fist). It’s like a miniature meteor hammer that fits in your pocket and weighs about as much as a sling and a rock

I used to sell these at gun shows, and they were popular, but I haven’t done that in a while. I found a few extra lanyards in my closet. I’d be willing to trade one for a sling and a rock... maybe minus the rock Grin

If it’s from a fellow slinger like you, it’s special! I dont have a herringbone split pouch yet, so you’ve got yourself a deal. What color do you want? Blue, light blue, or red?

The blue one is yours! If it were winter, I would definitely say yes to chocolate, but in Texas in summer, it would turn into a puddle in the envelope. I’ll PM you and we can work out all the details.

It’s a standard monkey chain... form a loop near the monkey fist; push a loop into the first loop. Repeat the loop-in-loop process until you run out of cord and pin the last loop with the hitch pin.

I also managed to extend it and tie it back up despite how terrible I am at knots Thanks for the Texas key ring as well. I hope this means the slings I've sent will be arriving soon.

Woohoo! I was hoping it would arrive soon. I’m glad you like it

I will let you know as soon as the sling arrives. I didn’t see it in my mailbox this morning, but I’m sure it will be here soon.

It’s here! Thanks KTO! A package with two slings just arrived fresh from Finland. I can’t wait to try them out.

Hope you get some good use from them. One has a particularly large pouch for use with tennis balls and the other is more of a regular split pouch for rocks or glandes.
