TOD Knife

I was watching TOD tonight and I noticed this knife pop-up on screen. Its in the scene where Indy gets whipped. As the thuggee grabs his whip from the pile of Indy's gear up comes this knife. It seems to be a knife in Indy's possession,(or Short Rounds?) as it was wrapped up in Indy's gun belt. What...

Don't buy the 1" strap from Tandy, it's WAY too thick for a bag strap. I got some and it's almost 3/16" thick! It's too thick to even fold over onto itself. Thanks for the input. At $30.00 shipped and premade Todd's looks like a pretty good option. If I were to go ahead with a home made s...

I was looking at making my own strap using material from Tandys and it seemed to me, to be about as much as a strap from Todds. You have any advice to make one cheaper? Thanks

I wanted to share my finished whip after a bit more work. I wanted to modify it for a Young Indy LC look. So I did a red overlay on the handle and bound it under the THK. There's a lot of taper at the transition knot. But I like it. Now on to a 8' tan. :whip: http://i537.photobucket.com/albums/ff338...

I don't know much about making nylon whips, but you mentioned the butt is lead loaded. I've always heard that typically nylon whips have the thong loaded to make up for the nylon being lighter than leather. Is the thong also loaded or is the whip really butt heavy? Just curious?
