Diamond Knot (Soft Shackle)

[@mariakozachek6643]

Watched 5 or 6 different explanations of this knot, trying to repeat it, failing time after time, getting more and more frustrated - the last part where we tuck both ends to the center just didn't make sense! Until I finally found your video, your explanation and 2 colors of the cord make it so clear. Thank you!

This is the best knot demo I’ve ever seen. I’ve seen countless.

Wow, thank you! I was lost in the parracord weeds until I found this, and it's just what I need. While I spend all my time on the water in a sprit-rigged leeboard dinghy, I have also greatly enjoyed your America's Cup commentary. Thanks for the Italian translations!

You're very welcome!

The first part isn’t a Carrick Bend, that would have the ends on the same sides. In the olden days, this was a knife lanyard knot.

[@jimholthaus9009]

Fantastic!

[@bryantreacher5793]

The diamond knot is a foot rope knot inside out and also a foot rope knot is a diamond knot inside out which would mean that the two ends and the handle would be on the other side of the knot .but there is a moor direct way to tie the diamond knot.

[@christopherlynch4347]

Thanks

[@bryantreacher5793]

The only problem is that this a foot rope knot which is the inverse of a diamond .

[@MozzySails]

Just the same knot upside down?
