Knife Handle Wrap w. Paracord
Published: 5 days ago
How to Paracord Wrap featuring the Templar Vigil mini survival blade (available January 20, 2026)
This cool little knife was born from a simple idea: survival demands reliability, not gimmicks. Templar wanted a tool that strips away the unnecessary and focuses durability, versatility, and readiness. They’ll also be creating a larger version of this knife. I found this knife to be a perfect model for this video because it has five strategically placed notches on the handle to secure paracord in a variety of wraps.
Adding paracord to a survival knife has a few benefits:
- In terms of handle material, it is lightweight
- When wrapped properly, it can provide superior grip in damp conditions
- Having back up pair cord is always a good idea, especially in emergency and survival situations
- It is combining 2 pieces of gear, reducing over all weight carried
Fun little note from Templar regarding the knife: “We named it The Vigil, inspired by the Knights Templar tradition of the night-long vigil—a solemn watch kept before battle, symbolizing readiness, discipline, and sacred duty.”
