Well Done! You are a natural "Story Teller/Teacher" with your hands. I have only tied simple/practical knots, but have always been aware of the more decorative variety. Been seeing this combination on carry-out restaurant satisfaction service bells. The music will help me through the many hours it takes for these hands to learn this combination.

I first became interested in knot tying in the '60s when I was a Boy Scout. I was probably the youngest person on earth to master the sheepshank and bowline, hahaa! In the' 70s it was macramè, and then there was a dead spot until 550 Cord was invented, and I've been tying everything from fobs, to lanyards, to belts, to even jewelry and gemstone mountings. All this is to say that this project is one of the coolest I've ever seen and, it has earned you another subscriber. Thanks for sharing it!

Tried this using braided cord and six strands. The Footrope knot had me tied in knots for days but I eventually created something passable for a first attempt. I have searched a few local hardware stores for decent line but everything is either paracord, braided nylon line, twisted sisal, or twisted polypropolene. Thanks, Mikko.

I haven't attempted this yet but, between the excellent video and reading all the comments, I learned quite a bit. I learned that an alternative to paracord would either be braided polyester or cotton rope if you weren't able to hook up with Mikko to purchase his very own hand made hard laid linen...I believe it was linen. I think his website is currently down. To tighten one strand at a time with twisted line is something I also learned. This becomes real obvious during the MW knot portion.. Also, his method of forming the crown sinnet is tighter from the very beginning when compared to most other videos. Most others are very loose while, each and every time, Mikko leaves a pronounced loop at the onset to accept the fourth strand to pass underneath. Yes, very inspirational videos Mikko. Thank you kindly.

Your work shows in your hands! It's from doing what we love. I've designed & made jewelry for the better part of 50 years. I can't remember having refined, delicate hands. I always have broken nails, and rough, scarred, punctured, coarse hands, and I wouldn't have them any other way. We've earned that worn look. They are a reflection of a lifetime of creating. When people ask "What do you do?" The answer is, "Whatever it takes!" Best to you!

Paracord is very easy to practice with but the result when made in twisted cord is more beautiful in my opinion. Also when using twisted cord remember to tighten knots gradually one cord at the time.

Nice! Tried it in paracord. Love the challenge but tying the footrope knot with paracord turns out awful every time. Being landlocked and (relatively) broke, its hard getting quality anything except paracord. I hope this channel is around for a long time.
@mikkosnellman7 жыл бұрын
Thank you for your feedback. In my opinion hard laid cord gives the most beautiful result but you might want to try some braided polyester. It´s relatively cheap but harder than paracord.

This project prompted me to spend an evening knotting after quite a long hiatus. One thing that interested me was your use of a netting shuttle to tie constrictor knots. I was immediately off to Amazon to order one. What is your favorite small stuff for constrictor knots?
@mikkosnellman7 жыл бұрын
Though I like using natural materials otherwise, for constrictor knots I often use tarred nylon. It holds the knot well and is strong enough to tighten properly.

What is the 3mm cord you're using? 3 strand hardened cotton I'm guessing, and it's beautiful stuff. The 3mm soft cotton rope I have is hard to control sometimes and the finished knots aren't as clean looking.

Thank you Dave. The cord as usual is 3 strand hard layed cotton twisted by myself. As far as I know this kind of "Belfast cord" is not available from no other source. I do even sell these. If you are interested please check: www.snellman.ax/cords.pdf
