A paracord wrap is not only an effective way to carry extra cordage with you everywhere you go; it's also an excellent way to make an effective grip on a handle.

When tied tightly, paracord rarely slips and its smooth surface makes for an excellent and blister-free grip on your tools. Learn how to tie one of these grips yourself in the video below.

Not only is this grip very effective for keeping your tool in your hand and for carrying extra cordage everywhere you go, it's also pretty easy on the eyes. When done properly, paracord wraps can add to the usefulness of your tools and make them much nicer to look at.

The overwhelming variety of colors of paracord also means you can personalize your tools, a useful feature if you and your companions prefer the same types of equipment.
