Increasing the Apparent Handle Length of a Small Knife
Keeping a small knife in your survival kit is a smart thing to do. But sometimes a small knife can be difficult to work with. This is especially true if you have large hands. Here's a simple and inexpensive way to increase the apparent length of the handle to make that knife a bit easier to work with.
1. Run a piece of cord through the lanyard hole and tie a simple loop knot.

2. Adjust the knot so it lays against the edge of your hand.

3. That's it! When you close your hand the knot will lock in to the back of your little finger and provide you with more control over the knife and make it feel more comfortable while using it.
