Why waste your time and money making these when you can just buy one from "BandedSociety(.)com" they have great prices and you will save so much money from not having to buy all the colors
If you do remake this tutorial please review this video and count all of the Uh's and Umm's. I got so annoyed with your speaking pattern I quit watching.
Can you post a video on how to make a one strand necklace for men, and women.? (This last one is optional.) Any color you like. I just need to learn your technique, on the most simple knotted necklace. Because I am a total beginner. Thanks.
This is extremely difficult to get started! I feel the most important thing is getting the start of the braid down and the video does not show this. I have been re-watching the same 20 second section of the start of the braid and still can't figure it out after 1 hour of trying. I appreciate you making the video but I am very frustrated trying to start this out!
@GreenMyrtle They're some hemostats i found at a fly fishing shop made by a company called "Dr. Slick". I also tied some Turk's Head knots around the handles.
That is quite an impressive neckchain lanyard. I wonder, though, being as tough as it is, is there not a danger that one might hang him/herself if the lanyard got stuck somewhere?
Just like wrist lanyards; I have been thinking about it, and though I have been using some string that was merely 20-40lbs strength, when braided it would still be too strong to let go in case it got stuck somewhere and it was pulling you down.
@aRareKindOfMonster That does pose a problem. I rarely use my lanyard around my neck, usually I just have it sticking out of my pocket. I should try to figure out a way to make a quick-release on that thing.
@aRareKindOfMonster it should have a break-away section with low breaking strain. Silva compass have this neat lil male/female vacuum plug... I've seen one that used electrical eyelet terminators and a section of line which they can cut through. The amount of force needed to break a neck or displace a vertebrae is scary low, hell of a lot less then 1 let alone 4 strands of paracord.
@aRareKindOfMonster yeah those lil flat metal things you screw into place. Haven't managed to spot it again but think it might have been "seanmulhall". Been looking at friction based break-aways but hate ordering shitty plastic from overseas for $ per piece. Conference/back-stage pass lanyards usually have something but haven't got any with a decent design. Think this eyelet solution might just be the best and easiest to get hands on.
@MrBlack751 Very cool! I finished off my friend's lanyard with a wall and crown knot, and it looked very nice. Im glad you were able to follow my instructions.
whats the name of the knot you used for your marlin spike?

What type of hemostat is in your tool kit? That looks to be a burly one. It is so hard to find a good hemostat clamp.

I was wondering how you wrap your marlin spike ?

@artcob16 I use a knot called a "turk's head" knot. Unfortunately I don't have a tutorial on it yet, but there are plenty already on you tube.

Just a thought.
