[@MSScout86]

Only Southerners will appreciate the cool weather in September. Thanks for the great videos.

[@michaelslater627]

Blackie friend, I can relate to your comments on having a cool morning. I live in Paraguay and the heat and humidity here is unbearable in summer. Stay strong and get well good friend

[@janetburrows137]

I’ve trying the Canadian lock tie. Geez 😮😢. I can’t do it. But watch this space. Thank You Blackie. 😂❤🙏🤷‍♀️🇬🇧❤️🌲🙏🤷‍♀️🇬🇧

[@mymainmancave84]

I am surprised at so few likes so I added another one. That was well worth my time to watch. Very handy stuff. Now I have to head home and try this out.

[@bwskimo52]

It's two years after this video was posted, Blackie, but, the same time of year and we just had those first cool mornings here in Louisiana, so I definitely can relate to your excitement. Now, let me watch the video......😁

[@JohnChandler2006]

The daisy chain knot looks like the "electricians knot" I was taught to keep extension cords from tangling up. Love the vids Blackie!

[@Mountainbum1876]

I cant imagine that heat down there. Living in colorado at 9200 elevation we are spoiled with cool mornings and evenings throughout the summer. Great tip thanks Blackie.

[@marblemarble7113]

I live in north Carolina which is considered tame by southern standards and it still sucks

[@samroot7987]

Great tip! I sure do love seeing your channel grow! You definitely have earned and deserve it!

[@jeffrichards5106]

Glad to hear you finally got some relief in the weather Blackie, it's been a miserable summer here in Michigan, the 7th hottest summer on record. Finally getting some cool weather now that it's September.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Oh wow!

[@davidreichard3053]

Highly useful, keep it in your bag of tricks.

[@MichaelR58]

Blackie , great tip , thanks for sharing , God bless !

[@fredfreiberger7878]

Blackie I would like to see you cover the clothing you wear year round I.E. long sleeve shirts etc

[@blueoutside3394]

Thanks for showing this to me at the central ohio bushcraft gathering for my opossum pouch soft goods opossum perch!!

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

You bet!

[@kenbarrett6466]

100 ft paracord .. 40 ft ridge line set up in quick deploy method 10 6 ft hanks for all other uses at camp .. I have found this to be an effective means as to make the most out of my paracord .. guy lines , quick tripod lashing , firewood carrier, adjustable pot hanger,, all have bowlines already tied ..makes camp set up a breeze .. and number 36 bank line for everything else ..

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Sounds great!

[@mikebayliss5540]

this is the way to always carry some cordage. Clip it to your keys! The fancy lanyards on military officers uniforms use the same "daisy chain" knot.

[@blackbear9326]

Excellent Blackie. As usual. 🇬🇧👏👏👏👏👍🏼

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@thelifeofjools8384]

Ingenious ! ..... And that pink cord works great on video....easy to see what you're doing 👍Thanks.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Thanks 👍 yep i often use the bright stuff for demo i use the blacks greens ect for normal use

[@oldminer5387]

Thank you for the tip Blackie.

[@timlacy2284]

Blackie , Being from West Tennessee I understand what you are saying. Great Video and Information. I Appreciate You taking your time to share your knowledge. You Are The Master Woodsman and Bushcrafter. Thanks Again for passing on the knowledge. Tim L.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

I appreciate that

[@albertlevy3721]

I live in N Central Arizona. Believe me I can relate. When it's 120 in Phoenix it 100 here.

[@ericvater8672]

Once Blackie your tips and tricks are the best.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

I appreciate that!

[@jasonchristensen9018]

Thanks Blackie! Always enjoy your tips and tricks, practical, quick and simple!!

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Glad you like them!

[@donaldrinker8104]

Did you know that's how to start when you crochet. Yes I can do that but I'm still learning your other things thanks blackie

[@davidreichard3053]

Old shoestrings also make good expedient survival cord

[@jamesvatter5729]

Good stuff, Blackie.

[@ulfskoglund9435]

I like your videos but this one is a little spooky. Last night (in my time zone) I tied a paracord in the exact same way, a bowline knot at one end and prepared for a Canadian jam not in the other ... I hade not seen this video. Keep up the good work. Best regards Ulf

[@TinyTitan50]

Yet another great thing to add to my gear… thank you for sharing.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

You bet!

[@jeffrichards5106]

Thanks, that's great!. Very useful. 👍

[@hiramhaji7813]

Great video

[@Hoonozit]

Thanks for the video Blackie.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

Any time!

[@Patriot-American]

Blackie - Much appreciated and boy ... how useful is that! 😎👍

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

It sure is

[@geoffreydlin8043]

Glad you weathered the storm OK! Isn’t the “toggle lock“ a marlinspike hitch?

[@kenbarrett6466]

Yes it is .. my favorite way to stake out tent or tarp .. makes for quick set up and breakdown of camp

[@rick-kx7gy]

Might not get the humidity here in West Virginia you have . But damn sure have the heat . And at 0630 this AM I was celebrating the 58 degree we had . Thanks for the zip tie .

[@Flashahol]

I've been using the toggle trick to keep my propane tank secure in the trunk when refilling it. It's not rolling around anymore, but this would probably work even better.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

yep thats how i see it a quick hold

[@freeshrugs63]

3:36. I did it! After many tries this chair rung ain't going nowhere! Ha ha.

[@ecttreker9816]

Good one. Thanks

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

You're welcome

[@jeffechols5302]

Great tips thanks

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

No problem!

[@richisme3768]

Nice! Thanks! Have you tried using that daisy chained hank as a soft toggle? I start the chain with the bowline at the top, and when the last loop is pulled through the bottom put the bowline thru it and then the jam knot thru the bowline. The jam knot end can be made bigger by leaving a loop in it, pulling its "pull handle" thru that loop and tightening.

[@BLACKIETHOMAS]

i have not thanks for the idea

[@magnusdarkhan974]

Brilliant!

[@jimstewart5739]

Hey Blackie, I know what you mean about the first good temperature drop. I live in Cherryville, NC ( Cherr'ville ) and this morning when I woke up I asked my girlfriend, Alexa, what the temp was outside. She said it was 56 Degrees . Ahhhhh

[@michaeldean5787]

Haha, I know quite a few people with a special lady of the same name
