Excellent tutorial 🎉

[@williwonka5106]

People need to realize, that even on a hard surface like this, the bitter end will fit under the wrap as you pull the loop through. There is enough room for two full strands underneath the wrap as you create it. This is an excellent piece of history that has not yet been forgotten. The Whip Knot or sometimes called Rope Whipping. Excellent video. Thnx

[@UserName_no1]

As is the case with many a knot if you change one or more aspects of it's fabrication you can change its function. For instance, change one or two steps in the creation of the 'whip knot' and you have a 'hangman's noose'.

[@JOEZEP54]

I was taught how to do this many years back in the Boy Scouts. Have used it many times but is was a long time ago. Tried to to do it on a rope recently & could not remember. I guess it is true, " if you don't use it you'll lose it". LOL Thank you for the reminder & stay well,Joe Z

[@dposting2941]

Yeah but how many others tell you to just glue the thing in place at the end...points for originality. Glue on a knot channel.

[@benhall4141]

Brilliant video, thank you. Exactly the info I was after. I hand make mallets from green wood and wanted to wrap the handles with jute twine to give them a rustic look. This is a perfect way to do it.

[@KnottingKnots]

That would certainly make them stand out in a crowd!! You can also get some lovely coloured twines these days, you could maybe use two colours like here: igkt-solent.co.uk/whipping-rope/

Super, thank you, I was able to use your video to replace the whipping on a Lancashire peeler that the string had rotted through on. It's now back in action!

[@KnottingKnots]

OK, you have now peaked my interest, Lancashire Peeler?

[@AnneNichols]

​@@KnottingKnots It's a type of potato peeler used in Lancashire, utterly unlike the Yorkshire peeler, which they use on the other side of the Pennines! :)

I was looking for this tying method! Thank you!!!

[@KnottingKnots]

What are you going to use it for?

[@who5542]

I love this bindings, so useful! I managed to break my son's cot by snapping one of the beams underneath. It essentially split lengthways along the grain so I used this to temporarily bind the two split pieces together.

[@KnottingKnots]

Brilliant, I do love it when people use rope or cordage to solve a problem.

[@who5542]

@@KnottingKnots makes a lot of sense to me. Plus I don't have the most complete toolkit but without fail I always have paracord or some other cordage kicking around. Thanks for the refresher, I used to mess around with knots as a child and figured out many knots before I knew they had official names. This was one of those that I figured out as a child but I was unaware you could pull the loop through to tighten the binding.

[@anthonyhamilton8835]

Knott's really are very interesting. I finally thought I mastered how yo tie that Knott in a rope when you see one on a old TV western when they hang a horse theif didnt work it held me for 40 seconds came undone. Wearing turtle necks now

[@BlueMountain2017]

[@BlueMountain2017]

@@KnottingKnots Homemade paracord necklace for myself. I used thin waxed cord on a loop of paracord. I have done it a couple of times now for practice and it really works well. I just ordered some more paracord so waiting on that now so I can make the necklace.

[@KnottingKnots]

@@BlueMountain2017 Good to hear. Can I interest you in some two coloured whipping, so that your work stands out even more and is recognised as YOURS? igkt-solent.co.uk/whipping-rope/

[@fb1051]

lovely clear video and explanation.. nice addition o clock chimes towards the end too... ;-) Your finishing solution of PVA and water mix.. yes leave it dry/harden.. but would that be suitable for outdoor use thereafter, do you think??

[@marksmith9295]

Great tutorial and I agree the paracord is a bit thick. Worked fine for your demonstration though. Cheers from across the pond in Ontario Canada. I plan to use do some whipping on the handle I just carved for a vintage hewing hatchet I recently purchased. It was made in 1909 and is in great shape.

[@KnottingKnots]

[@tadekboruta328]

Thank you very much, very useful video. Curious about that PVA water sollution. Do i have to hunt down for translucent glue? Or normal woodworking white one is good for this purpose. Worried it will change the colour/stain the jute/hemp rope and will look ugly.

[@KnottingKnots]

I personally use the "normal woodworking glue" yes, it is white, but dries clear. I use a mixture of 50/50 water to glue. One issue can be that it dries with small burrs from some of the fibres sticking out, but a hard rub gets rid of them when it is dry.

[@andytee1471]

@@KnottingKnots You can also use a small blow torch to lightly burn off any unsightly rope fibres to smooth it down prior to finishing / conditioning, and to add extra brown colour to 'Jute' and natural fibre rope.

[@alexverdigris9939]

I've seen this knot used to tie a fishing hook to a line, as an alternative to the snell knot. It is in fact even more secure than the snell knot since most of the loop is internal rather than external - not saying that the snell knot isn't secure enough, but you can have this for even more security.

I need to start the whipping four inches down from the end and that end sits flush to a support bar. The two were badly welded and it came apart. I don't want the bar the whipping is around to sit on top of the support bar but to butt up against it. With the excess, what knot should I use to lash the whipped bar to the support bar?

[@phantomcruizer]

What’s the difference between this and a “constrictor knot”?

[@KnottingKnots]

Common Whipping is often used on the end of a rope to stop it from fraying also adds a decorative touch. The constrictor knot is more often used as a biding knot. I personally use the constrictor a great deal when doing decorative knotwork. I use it to secure sections together, allowing me to do something else. If you were to pull apart some decorative knotwork, you will probably find the constrictor knot still in place, where other decorative knotwork has covered over it. Whipping could be classed as more permanent and the Constrictor is more of a temporary knot.

[@TheAkashicTraveller]

Electrical tape plus common whipping equals one fixed charging cable. Electrical tape never sticks in my experience and looks terrible. Also it was only the outer sheath that was damaged. What is it with companies deciding that the same cabling we've used for dacades and is practially indestructible is worth giving up for something that looks a little nicer?

[@KnottingKnots]

It would be interesting if you are able to show me an example of a cable made up with whipping? Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
