Lanyard beads

[daddyo]

Anyone know a good local source of beads (wood or metal) for knife lanyards? I've looked at Joanns and Michael's here in Williamson County and they don't seem to have any that I'm interested in. I could just make my own, and will more than likely start doing just that at some point, but would like to find some already done to get some ideas.

I don't know a local source. I'd like to find one too. I have one or two people I've bought from on ebay, but they're mostly skull type beads.

I found some decent, but plain ones at the Tandy Leather store on Nolensville Road in Nashville. http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com

IIRC, they had a better selection of metal ones than wood. Hope this helps.

I made one from a piece of deer antler. I think it looks pretty good.

Nice! Looks great, Gregg.

My wife could never find local sources for a real selection of beads, she makes jewelery. So this is where she gets hers -

From the little girl to the macho man they have just about everything.

Fire Mountain is good but there are a lot of suppliers. Try a search on the internet.

That one is a 250-3000. I also have them in 300 Savage, 243 Winchester, and even 410 shotgun.
