    I got a request for tying shoes together. I did one in the past with shock cord, but it was much more complicated. This is a much easier version using a modified figure 8 knot. I wanted something better than a square not so I cut a custom hook out of aluminum.

    I think you should make a marlin spike that is half the size of the current one for those of us who mostly work with paracord. The current size is a bit large to carry around.

    Thanks for this practical and interesting attachment tip on hanging sneakers off the exterior of a backpack.
    Thinking that it would be great also for air drying wet sneakers while hiking.
    Happy Trails!

    I just realized today how Relatable Laura is! Haha I had seen her videos before but had no idea you’re related until she went to show the blind extension you made her. She walked past a photo of you on the wall.. I thought wow he looks familiar! Then she showed something in the garage but all I saw was the spools of rope in the background.

    Would have liked to order your Marlin Spike. Discovered shipping to my European country is as much as the Spike itself. Would be good to have a local reseller. Anyway nice content and products.

    Do you have any favorite fishing knots? That’s what drew me into knots. My favorites are the Alberto and FG for tying leader to braid, loop knots, improved clinch knots, Palomar for hooks/lures. I also like climbing knots like the Prusik and Alpine butterfly.

    Are you adding those hooks to your website? I would like to buy them. I received the marlin spike and no hook and realized it was for the month of July when watching the video again. Great marlin spike! I bought three of them already. 👊

    Hi I have just discovered this world of knots and was amazing find your channel. I have a petition too, could you make a knot to keep our cellphone comfortably on our forehead to use the flashlight? I mean in case we would want to turn on the flashlight of our cellphone and keep it on our forehead to freely use our hands while we are shining our flashlight. Thank you for all the wonderful knots you teach us and keep it going.

    Like it, but then the shoes will swing erratically while walking-totally annoying. It’s easy to attach them with another cord though, to avoid the lateral oscillations.
    Awesome videos! Loved them for years now. 😊

    • @paulamcclure3402
      @paulamcclure3402 2 місяці тому +1

      Agree.
      Many backpacks have some attachment points (e.g., D-rings, straps, MOLLE, etc.) where you can secure the load (sneakers in this case) from swinging.
      Happy Trails!

    Do you have a way to put a steel cable in paracord? It would prevent someone from cutting your shoe carrier and stealing the shoes. Or stealing a purse out of a shopping cart, etc.

    Thanks for first class amateur - I think you can do better than the Amazon design too:
    It's a design flaw for them to hook the carrier in the middle of the backpack handle rending the handle cumbersome to use when the shoe-holder is on; instead, if there are two points holding each onto either sides of the base end of backpack handle, then the handle will still function well.
    Second, the shoes are held not fixed by this shoe-holder at the bottom, if the bottom are also fixed stably onto the backpack, then the shoes can be carried more compactly.
