OVERVIEW
6 PACK OF ZIP KNOTS. ONE COLOR PER SET.
Replace your zipper pulls with safety light-reflecting zip knots.
A monkey's fist is a type of knot that looks like a small fist. Originally used as the weight in a heaving line on sailing ships.
Light reflecting 3M Scotchlite "tracers" are woven into the UV resistant paracord jacket. When light strikes the tracers they reflect hundreds of bright eye-catching little spots.
These sleek little paracord reflective Zip Knots make it easier to grab your zipper pull in the dark and add a valuable dimension of safety. Attach them to you favorite coat or ski jacket .
Each Monkey Fist Zip Knot is hand-tied from U.S.A. sourced reflective paracord by our craftsman in the highlands of Guatemala. The work is carried out in the spirit of Fair Trade. Each year I visit the village and check on our workers. The impact of this business has been tremendous for the village.
By purchasing Reflective Monkey Fist Zip Knots you're keeping families together and helping maintain the proud craftspeople of Guatemala.
