[Adamj190]

[and9Simo]

[yonaha525]

[stigmatic79]

Great tactical knot please make more of these type videos...

I agree with bfjgreen - merely doing and seeing the knots is like practicing calculus in mathematics class - without practical applications, it all just just comes and goes without a sense of purpose. Just as the one poster wrote for your Becket's Bend knot video, the actual application(s) and limitations need to be shown early and clearly.

Keep making these - they are very good resource on how to make different lanyards/knots.

Is this more of a decorative knot, or does it have some pratical uses? If so what would they be? BTW - loving the KOTW videos, thanks for making them. Could I suggest a series on quick release knots? Siberian Hitch (Svenk knot) would be good.

This is a four-strand Crown Knot, and not all Crown Knots are round.

Thanks for the comment!

@ITStactical Does this knot go by any other names?

What is the relation "feet of paracord/lenght of the knot"?

[ITStactical]

Out of two non-gutted 26" lengths of paracord we used, we were able to make around a 3" Crown Knot pull.

So that's around 8.5" of paracord for every 1" of completed Crown Knot.

Excellent videos!

Keep 'em coming

Thanks for sharing.

[ITStactical]

Glad you like them, we'll definitely keep 'em coming. Thanks for the comment!
