Suggestion for a lanyard thicker than a 550 snake knot

I use a short two inch lanyard on the end of my small fixed blade to act as a 4th finger grip. The handle is only long enough to support three fingers normally.

I have XL/XXL size hands, and I'm finding the paracord 550 snake knot to be too thin to do what I wanted. I'd rather not order higher diameter cordage if there's a better knot/braid I could use to get the 550 to work. About twice the diameter would be perfect. I'd like it to be fairly round to facilitate a good pinky grip.

Thanks!

Edit: While looking at the crown sinnet, I found just what I was looking for ... Circle Stitch Sinnet

It's enough diameter and round throughout. Thanks for the suggestions.

It's a limited run, but you can buy it right now. It's listed as the Flagship Guardian 3. Other than Creely's drops, I'm not aware of any other small fixed blades you can get in Magmamax at the moment.

I love the brand, but I'll be waiting for the 3.2 or 3.5. I'm a little surprised to see it's at 61-62 HRC instead of 64-65.
