The history behind the technique is your absolute biggest asset. The purpose for many of these knots is completely lost with the paracord craze. Cheers mate
Got it, thanks! I had to adjust the speed to 1.5 and mute that weird repetitive sound, but bottom line-you showed me how. Incredible that I didn't know this one yet, as I'm a bit of a knot guy too-grew up around boats & ships on Florida's Gulf Coast. Thumbs up, keep them coming!
Thanks for being so generous. I like this hitch . Iam new to this .. aside from salt water fishing knots. I found a round piece of wood and you made it easy ..just need to keep it tight from the start . the music suits the video ...A1
Love the knot.. so cool. Also love the music choice. FYI, it's from Neon Child entitled "16 Again", from the album "Nature Child". I bought the album thanks to this video.
if you do this with wet leather strands the wraping will tighten when it dries it will result in an awesome tight wraping and ty for the vids @tryingitalltogether
I know I am a few months behind in commenting on this knot, but I would like to see variations on Coxcombing. I have seen it zig zag and would like to see the switching directions stitching. I would also like to see Coxcombing with multiple strands. You have done an excellent job of showing how to tie this knot.
Me gusta, es muy lindo, y las imagenes son bien claras, no es necesario que este en español, basta con seguir el movimiento de tus manos. Gracias por compartir con nosotras.
That was great! And I never would have thought about how the sailor's had to have a way to tell where the rudder was, but of course they did:) Thanks! P.S. To anyone who doesn't like the music, hit mute-duh
I spent a number of years in the Navy and although I was a Naval Weapons Technician I had a good friend who was a Bosun and he showed me how to make a Ships Bell Strike, This is the "handle" which hangs down from the clacker or the ball that rings the ships bell. When you feel one of these handles they feel like a knotted thin cordage has been tied over a piece of broomstick, the truth is that it is comprised entirely from rope. Paracord type cord is wrapped around a core of 8 or 10 pieces of cord in a foot long bundle, the cord that is wrapped around the central core is tied off to a solid object and then you have to lean back on your heels so your whole body weight is hanging on the line which is then wound up slowly using your wrists to slowly stand yourself back up an inch at a time. It is very tiring to the hands but when complete it makes a cord "stick" so hard you could easily knock someone out with it. A decorative sheath is then tied over it using dyed thin cord. The completed handle is beautiful as it is functional.
+Charlie Knibbs It was awesome at the time, I was 19 when I was remustered into the Navy and because of the trade I was in I spent a ton of time at sea. My trade was new at the time and there were hardly any of us in the fleet yet since there was a horrible attrition rate during the TQ3 course set. Out of every 100 that started the course only 25 graduated and went out to the fleet, so the first year was spent almost continuously at sea. The comradeship on-board is fantastic and that is the one thing I miss the most. You get to see a lot of the world and I circumnavigated the globe 5X in 5 years myself. That's not a common thing but as I said I sailed a lot the first few years. The Navy is steeped in tradition and some of the traditions date back to the days of Admiral Nelson and the tall ships, the language is a type unto its own, Gash is garbage, duff is dessert, you have decks not floors, heads not toilets, hatches not doors etc. I'm not to sure what you are interested in so I don't know what to tell you about but I can tell you that the Navy was a great time in my life. I planned on making a career out of it but saw combat in the mid 80's and that kinda changed my mind... in a real hurry. lol.
Clever stuff and it doesn't look bad either! I have no cord YET, and have tried some stuff out with string with some things working. I just wondered if or how to work direct from the spool or skein loose end with out cutting the length used off until much nearer the item made is almost finished? I am kinda 'tight', and wasting a foot or more of most of the coloured cord would be almost painful to me and hurt my pocket, as I live on a fixed income I would like to know how this is done please?
good video you mentioned that you secure the ends of the coxcombing with turksheads but you did not mention how many strand turksheads do you use 3, 4, 5, 7 ?? please let me know thanks
because of this vid, now I know how to tie a Turk's head knot good post Tiat ! in the vid list, look at all the really cool knots to tie. well so much for THIS weeks paycheck. it's all going to paracord. scrunch this up and push it over a spade handle or an axe handle etc.. etc.. I did a similar knot on my 10 foot surfrod. the foam was too thick in that spot. cut the foam out to the size of my hand and wrapped it. then I clearcoated it after. much better grip..
JD. Can you do a double or triple and if so I am not sure how it would get started without it looking like a mess. I have truly enjoyed your knots and your thinking outside the box with them.As
id imagine if you took a measuring tape and wrapped ti around what youre talking about 2 or three times it would give you a rough idea how much rope you'd need. Tho if youre using thicker rope increase the measurement.
It goes MUCH QUICKER if you do it in the opposite direction. Then it is just like crocheting a chain where you turn the loop half a turn. Then you do not have to pull the long/standing end through, and can continue almost indefinitely.
How do you do that? Can you show us how that's done? Because trying to learn how to tie and/or braid, via verbal instruction, takes a genius technical writer, and so far, I haven't read anyone's writing that is sufficient to walk me through a thing like that. Thanks, Mr.!
He he he, I found a way to tuck that naughty looking chord at the top into the rest. Seamlessly. An although I used a shorter piece of leather chord, it was thinner, so the proportions are ok. Win!
Thank you for your clear and easy to follow instuctions. You made it so enjoyable . I would like to see more of your craft. Let me know. Tanya Sydney Australia
I allow my knot ridge to spiral from top right to bottom left. This makes the loops around the back that form a "ladder" to compress together so there is no wood visible.
Actually a simple vine hitch is more practical and provides greater protection for areas subject to heavy use such as wheels and railings for ladder ways. Its tighter and once finished with a coat of spar varnish is much more durable.
The hardest part on any fancy knot is getting started LOL A long time I bought one of those plant hangers with a bout 1 mile of rope (It seemed like 1 mile). It ended up in the trash, I couldn't get it started. LOL
Sorry, I didn't mean to push dislke, but I don't know how to undo it. Love this technique & the video is very easy to follow. Going to do my steering wheel!
not sure what you mean by rope maker. He's using a wooden dowel that can be found in any home building supplies store or home hardware. the rope, you could use whatever you wanted i'd imagine. You can find ropes like he used in the same store as the dowel. As for the guy who made the weaving. Not sure where you can find him. sorry.
Será que as pessoas que adoraram o vídeo mas não gostaram da música não conhecem aquele ícone que fica na parte do vídeo e que silencia a música?????/Ha não .... é mais fácil procurar os defeitos , mesmo que tenha gostado .....LOL Parabéns ao tutorial!!!!!1

such a pretty knot i use it on nights out arms or leg cuffs and it looks so elegant
This guy is great! :-D I can't understand why anyone would "dislike" any of his videos.

music sucks
Very easy to follow tutorial, nicely done. It's also relaxing to watch.
Love the knot.. so cool. Also love the music choice. FYI, it's from Neon Child entitled "16 Again", from the album "Nature Child". I bought the album thanks to this video.
I like your presentation it seems tyng is very doable.
if you do this with wet leather strands the wraping will tighten when it dries it will result in an awesome tight wraping and ty for the vids @tryingitalltogether
Perfect timing! I was looking to do some knots on a wooden staff and this will work beautifully. Thanks!
Great closing shot showing both side views of the finished knot.
Well done and you make it easy to follow by going slow and I enjoy all your video's very much and have learned alot ! Thank you !
Your vids are clear, consice, and useful. Well done - and thank you!
Have been searching for weeks to find something useful for making tassel forms, this is perfect, thank you so much xxx
I just stopped by for a refresher on the knot..... stayed fort the song.
I know I am a few months behind in commenting on this knot, but I would like to see variations on Coxcombing. I have seen it zig zag and would like to see the switching directions stitching.

MUTE is no help when someone is talking!
A very nice knot to add to my collection. Thanks for sharing.
Sorry guys; I actually do like the music. The tutorial is great, too. Thanks, JD.
Very easy to follow. Also love the relaxing music!
Thanks ... Made me realize I have too much time to waste ... Very inspirational video 2 thumbs ... All I can say is Awesome !!!

Woah. That sounds very confusing... I admire you
nicely done. used to belong to the knot tyers guild of Texas until most got so old it kinda fell apart, miss it so.
Clever stuff and it doesn't look bad either!
I have no cord YET, and have tried some stuff out with string with some things working.

Perfectísimo!! JuhuGracias por compartir su talento.!!
Love this video...but trying to find one of a multiple-strand ringbolt. Cant seem to find a tutorial. Any ideas?
+Beach Bum Woodworker what about this with 3 or four strands of rope ?
+birenmyron tried that. Can't figure out how to interweave the strands.
nice video and the music is very soothing
because of this vid, now I know how to tie a Turk's head knot
good post Tiat !
in the vid list, look at all the really cool knots to tie.
well so much for THIS weeks paycheck. it's all going to paracord.
scrunch this up and push it over a spade handle or an axe handle etc.. etc..
I did a similar knot on my 10 foot surfrod. the foam was too thick in that spot.
cut the foam out to the size of my hand and wrapped it. then I clearcoated it after.
much better grip..
Muito bom, gostei... obrigada
I used this to tie extra paracord onto a belt clip that came on a kydex neck sheath, exactly what i was looking for thanks
Mulțumesc mult,foarte frumoase lucruri ne învățați,multumesc încă odată
Thanks for the info keep up the good work ..
Wow...glad I found your channel! Great video!!!
JD. Can you do a double or triple and if so I am not sure how it would get started without it looking like a mess. I have truly enjoyed your knots and your thinking outside the box with them.As
Despite what someone else said I really like the music what is the name of it? And the tutorial is very well done thank you for sharing it
Fantastic Video & Rope Work Dude. Keep up the great work. Nick.
what is the song? i love it.
Once again... I thank you for another knot tying demonstration...
Travis Smith e
Travis Smith que se
That was pretty damn cool! Not as complex as I thought, initially. Thank you!
Loved the tut AND the music!! Very hypnotic!!
Love the music. Doobie Brothers/South City Midnight Lady. For the ones not old enough to remember.
how much paracord would you need to cover the whole shafts of the paddle?
id imagine if you took a measuring tape and wrapped ti around what youre talking about 2 or three times it would give you a rough idea how much rope you'd need. Tho if youre using thicker rope increase the measurement.
Thank you for this cool looking tie!
Concerto tazenda
How do you calculate how much cord you will need? If I have a 1'' diameter cane and want to wrap say 10'' of it how much cord do I need?
this is pretty neat,. where do you used this kind of knot???
Camp maybe...
It might largely decorative, though some people really like using cord wraps on tool handles for various reasons.
That was soo cool!!! I wanna do it!
Thanks for sharing your technique. This will make a nice wrap for a bridal bouquet! Using ribbon of course! :)
I love this song with the video!
your military bugle cord film is unavailable along with a few others. What's going on with that? I can't even comment on it
Liquitex
Wow keren banget gelang nya kk juga indah sekali
How tight will the whole knot be upon completion? Would this be a good knot for the handle on a walking/hiking staff?
I would like to see the Turk's head knot done on the staff. Maybe a five bar version? Great video and music as always!
Pretty darn talented! Good Job!
Nice video and a nice useful knot. but what bout the ends?
i think you would hide both heads under a turk's head knot
Mulțumesc mult tuturor celor care ne învățați și pe noi
is there any books you would recommend more on survival i guess you can say?
neat tut, might consider using a 'fid' for the stringing, might be easier for the threading. easier
Very nice. I wiill try it .
It goes MUCH QUICKER if you do it in the opposite direction.
Then it is just like crocheting a chain where you turn the loop half a turn.

Pretty cool knot.
Wow. great job
Interesting knot. Do you have a rule of thumb that you go by for the length? I would like to try it on a steering wheel.
Ron
could u do this knot more than once in a pattern like double or 4 xs?
It’s beautiful! Thanks!
wow very nice
Hello, im crazy about your videos. Can i use thin wire to do this on a piece of jewelry?
Very informative! And I love the music!
Your videos are fantastic.thank you so so much ^^
Ça peut toujours servir !
Tuto sympa comme la musique ;-)
Los nudos son muy útiles, no solo es un buen ejercicio manual ,
también es un muy buen ejercicio para la mente.
!!! muy buena la música ¡¡¡
Good video love the music💕💕
Actually a simple vine hitch is more practical and provides greater protection for areas subject to heavy use such as wheels and railings for ladder ways. Its tighter and once finished with a coat of spar varnish is much more durable.
The hardest part on any fancy knot is getting started LOL
A long time I bought one of those plant hangers with a bout 1 mile of rope (It seemed like 1 mile). It ended up in the trash, I couldn't get it started. LOL
I have the perfect staff to adorn with this hitch. I wonder what happens when you pull the ends...
Watch this if you need help falling asleep.
Cool knot though.
What is the music on this, very cool.
Great video, cool tunes....
ive been going back and watching some of your old videos and id forgotten how much i hate this song . but good video none the less
Disculpa, para que sirve ese trenzado?

Yes! He said factoid! I love the word.
Hi where do we get he rope maker thanks
not sure what you mean by rope maker. He's using a wooden dowel that can be found in any home building supplies store or home hardware. the rope, you could use whatever you wanted i'd imagine. You can find ropes like he used in the same store as the dowel. As for the guy who made the weaving. Not sure where you can find him. sorry.
