My dad once spliced a rope holding a boat on the sea. The thick rope was clearly torn and not well-taken care of. My dad, not knowing who oned the boat, untied the rope and started splicing it. I thought it was the coolest thing how he could make that old rope look nice again. He then proceeded to tie the rope back where it was. I bet the boat owner was really happy when he realized he didn't have to struggle with that mess of a rope anymore! I'm glad I found a video to teach me what my dad did :D

73 yrs old, and this is my first time, you make it easy,thank you

Thank you! I have just re-learned how to do this with your very clear video and instruction.

I forgot how to make this back splice. Years, many years ago I could do this. Thanks for reteaching.

I have been looking for this for many years! My Dad and Grandfather used to make lead ropes for the horses using this as the end knot. I thought I would never learn their secret! Thank you for sharing!❤

What a great simple Crown Knot process. Thanks for sharing.

I watched two or three other videos without being able to figure out what to do, but once I watched your video it was clear. Thank you!

Excellent, thank you for sharing, I've been looking for someone to teach me this knot and you've done a great job at it.

Best back splicing tutorial I've found. Thank you! :-D

I'm watching this with the sound off because the missus is watching the news, and I can still follow it perfectly and can tell that the voiceover must be really detailed! Thanks, am looking forward to watching it with the sound on-if I need to, that is!! Well done.

Thank you. I spent several hours just getting this wrong until I found your video. Brilliant Mark.

Loved the way you broke it down step by step very effective explanations and steps. I would love to see you eye splice 8 strand.

Thanks brother love from taiwan

Very nice tutorial sir,.thank you and more power,..

Well explained in full detail ..Thank you very much ..

Great

a nice review hehe

I notice your rope strands are twisted anti-clockwise. My rope twists clockwise looking at the end coming out. Does this make any difference to the direction of your first loop in the crown knot?

thank sir

Really this is a nice lesson....

thank you it help mo so much in scouting

Thank you so much for clear directions. I’ve watched 2 other videos and wanted to scream at the complicated instructions. Why do some people try to make things so complicated?

Thank tou

Nice tuturial..

This was very helpful.. but most of all.. your voice is amazing..

thanks bruh. Helped me for my NCC test.

❤❤❤❤

Tutorial please.. For 4 strand rope

Thanks bro

Mark- I’ve said this before; your video instructions are by far the best out there. They are easy to follow and very informative. I always come away learning more than I came in with. If I may ask, where about sin the world do you reside? Do you ever attend knotters functions? Would love to meet. Thanks again. Don Eshelman from SF Bay Area.

What’s that tool you’re using?

Because I was not making this splice ..but I make now

Eye splice had always been a piece of cake for me.. this splice, i always make a mistake in making the crown.. thank you for showing it..

Man. Can I help you? Rope. I'm a frayed knot.

Great video

Don't keep saying easy its bloody impossible, from the start the crown knot looks nothing like yours and it gets limp and messy as it goes on impossible unless your a professional stopped rewound bid over and over to no avail I d give up

I'm not going to listen to an AI voice
