it was a failure.

I like the double DNA knots, but I was too lazy to go up stairs to get my Pivot this holdster was meant for. I used my BC Apollo as my model. Never thought about the string gap difference and the Pivot sits loose now.

I think I can salvage it, if I can find thin enough scissors I can cut back some of the knots. It will just make the tail just a bit longer.

Looks good.

The kids and I did a couple a few months back.

I really enjoy the swivel on the one in the first picture.

Amazon - [Mtverver Heavy Duty Keychain Opener with 2 Keyrings Car Keychains, Multifunctional Toolbox for Men and Women Car Keychains (Black) at Amazon Men’s Clothing store](https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B09Q33BN8W?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title)

I removed the rings. I am disappointed with the knife, but if you dull it, it works OK as a knot pick.

Have fun.

No pattern. Its just a standard Cobra knot. Left the core strings long and weaved to fit.

Have fun.

My second “functional” holster. This one has yoyoexpert colors but could also be Deadpool or Carolina Hurricanes.

I made a Venom and Spider-Man themed holster this weekend.
