I'm working on a knife sheath and am having a problem with my thread. I purchased some simulated sinue, the problem it that it is several threads waxed side by side like a ribbon. I cannot get the needle to "lock in", it just pulls back through the thread. I had used some 4 strand poly that I liked but don't know what it is called. Does anybody know? What thread do yall like?

After you get the thread through the eye as you normally would, put a tiny dab of super glue on the loop through.

I'm using fil au chinois 532 and it works fine but is pricy. Switching over to Tiger thread. Hoping its better.
