I want to make a blacjack out of paracord. Any ideas what to put in the handle to make it harder? I am considering a spring or a large screw maybe.
Is it rape season already?
Lead sinker
I mean what to put inside the part that you hold not the part you hit with.

Harder do you mean inflexible or heavier or more durable?
More inflexible

I welded a big ass bolt to a steel ball. I'd do that or fill a nipple or copper tube with lead
a hot glue stick

if you wanna be inspired by the germans, put a spring in it.

Are you forming a middle school summer camp mafia group?
You can save your ass a lot of time and just carry a metal stick with a ball at the end and forget the whole paracord step entirely.

I would carry a sword with no edge.
Hand out flat blade at will.

I want it to be non-lethal

Nothing is non-lethal until you make it lethal.

Paracord is not going to help with that.
>Yes, your honor, I did strike the man with a hammer. But it was wrapped in paracord, so no harm done.
Make a nice paracord fob for a padlock and go full biker.

A well-sized of Spring steel is the best. I make knives out of old car leaf springs, so I had it around. Using super hard steel like a bolt isn't nearly as good but it's fine too if it's all you got.
Bearing balls are the legit head for the modern day, but I used a cast little biscuit of lead.

This is definitely lethal OP, no different than brass knuckles. Less lethal than a gun but it's still a hard heavy thing that will fuck up someone's day. The thing to realize is that if you're using it, it's because your life is in danger and anything that happens to the other fucker is justified.
