Years ago when golf club woods had persimmon wooden heads, we used to wrap black twine to keep the steel shaft from coming out of the wooden head. So there was no sign of ends just a 3" long neatly wrapped twine. I would start the twine wrap off with a large loop of twine and wrap over the length of the loop. Once the desired length had been reached. You pull the loop through the wrapped part and trim it off. That way there was no sign of twine at either the start or the end of the twine length. You should try, I never knew it to come undone.

I learned splicing in the '60s with 3 strand manila. You'd whip each of the 3 strands and you'd whip the bitter end of a line. The easiest to me was the long splice which took two 100 foot lines and yeilded a 194 foot line that would pass easily through a block. Thank you to the Boy Scouts of American and their Pioneering Merit Badge instruction book. This is a different kettle of fish, but the theory and object are the same.

Re. "Whip it good"... no apologies necessary, that song comes to mind every time I watch a video that has whipping in it. Especially when it's whipped good.

That made it look simple, my mum showed me to tie a knot wrap it around the needle 2-3 times then slide it down the thread, you get the same result a little knot👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺

The Rigging Doctor has a video on his channel on how to do a locking splice so no whipping is needed. I've not tried it yet.

I use more of a traditional French whipping stitch. I like to use heat shrink (adhesive lined) on dock lines over the stitch. Looks great, and I can always tell what lines are mine. It tends to be somewhat inflexible for other applications.

Get Ashley's Book of Knots. Money well spent for anybody that works with cord, ropes, lines.

The whippings are nicely Ty’ed off.

Love the demo, but as an old Boatwain mate, get no marring pliers so you don't mar, scratch or damage your sail needle. It doesn't take much to make it a more of a pain to pull through. You guys are awesome,! Happy sailing.
