I could see turning a blade and two sticks into a scythe with knitting. perhaps you could replace the sticks with knitting alone but it would take a lot of rope, and perhaps you could replace the single blade with many razor blades linked together to make a blade, to prevent it from being wobbly you would likely need to add acrylic, but then it's not truly just knitting alone. perhaps you could melt the cord some to harden it, perhaps even if you use lots of melted and pressed ends you could replace the blade, but again at that point it's more of plastic and not really fully knitting. rope craft I guess.

thats how the cheeky bugger did it. my granddad was a skipper by trade and he kept his keys on a "monkey fist" as he called it. he put a big ol bit of cork in the place of the steel ball and thats what helped them float when i accidentally dropped them overboard when we were doing a boat delivery on the Norfolk broads when i was a kid. he actually made it himself and ive always wonderd how he did it.

Made a few of these in/for the USN on a couple of ships, the jig sounds like nice way to have to futz with it. The ones that I made went from using a die (like for monopoly) up to a tennis ball (split and put a lead core in it for longer ranges. We had a variety on the ship(s) depending on the range and wind you had to use them. The biggest was literally fist sized, and could travel nearly a hundred yards in a high wind (put one through the side window of the Commodore's official car at what we figured was over 50 yards!

It was 1992 the first time I made a Monkey's Fist. I was 18, in the US Navy, & was watching this Boatswain's Mate First Class Petty Officer on the fan trail of our ship, the USS Mobile LKA115, a gator freighter pulling out of Long Beach. He was making up a few with lead to throw to the peer while mooring. 'Boats' had done about 10 in twice as many minutes, never once looking at them, while carrying on a conversation with a few other deck hands. When they left I asked what is was & what is for, then asking if he'd show me how to make it. He showed me once quickly & went back up to the forecastle where he ran the storage locker. I was a Boiler Tech on the fire room side of our combined space. Got a little flak for tying knots & playing with lines, but I NEVER EVER forgot how to make a Monkey's Fist.

Nice whacker. Just a note: when enjoying (employing) the "fun and novelty" of this project, when the fist hits something solid it will rebound, especially if you swing through, and that rebound can go in unexpected directions, but because of the "maximum retention," it will be in the user's general direction. A 1.5" steel ball monkey's fist to the forearm/elbow will suck. Take my word for it. With this type of weap...umm...impact tool, a 'crack the whip' motion is the best/safest movement, or pulling down/towards you at the moment of impact to maintain control of the ball.

I'm not happy with the way it's tied. The wrapping around the ball is good, the braided looped handle is substantial, but the ball is attached to the handle with only two cords. Four would offer more security.
@nickwilliams8302
@nickwilliams8302 3 жыл бұрын
@@maxzhao8331 Correct. You'd _think_ something like that would rebound, but they usually don't. This thing looks very similar to a "brock", basically a kind of cosh. The idea is to have only a couple inches of cord between your fist and the weight. How it's normally used is as a force multiplier to the power hand (right for most people) in a regular boxing stance. You wouldn't want to swing the thing around by the end of the cord like a rope-dart or something (which you'd need to be doing to be in danger of hitting your own elbow).

I find it alit easier if he watches it first so I know he's paying attention to everything you've doing and he caught me going the wrong way once and corrected me, that's a so proud of him moment. Call it a win win for this old Papa. He and I spend quality time together an he's learning about making something from regular straight length of rope or cordage into a useful tool.

great production. i learned many things, including the hot water which will come in handy for many procedures. i do want to point out that knotters tool and marlinespike are synonimous with "fid" for the most part, while what he is calling a "fid" is commonly referred to as a needle. i enjoy turk's heads, and have only done monkey's fist once years ago, so i look forward to learning to adopt your great techniques. thanks.

Everything looks beefy except that, at the end of the day, you still have only two strands of paracord attaching the monkey fist to the 4-strand braid. Is there a way to attach more than two strands?

If you don't have a fid but have a little skill (hacksaw or cutting implement and a piece of sandpaper or a grinder) and a USGI .223 / 5.56 one each section of ramrod, you can make an excellent fid on your uncle's dime! Disclaimer: Please do not steal, your government hates competition...

learned this in the Navy '69-'70 in San Diego in the Waterfront Division on a yard oiler YO200. Used them to to get mooring lines to the dock or other ships when re/de-fueling. that handy dandy jig would have really been useful. used a rigging knife with a marlinspike to make them then. things have changed

Brilliantly made video, informative, clear, with a wonderful end product. I have a minor issue with a design feature. Where the ball weave joins the handle braid, there is only two strands holding the weight of the ball. I know true paracord is strong, but it still appears to be a weak spot joining two very strong sections. Would it be better to braid the whole tool with four strands and therefore strengthen this section?

these monkey fists are literally for egotistical bikers. there is no other way to explain it. There are "made for fun", lol. These are for bikers who drive like jackasses but will complain about road safety. These are for bikers that think public roads are for play time. MOST IMPORTANTLY if you hit some one or someones car with that, you will be going to jail or worse. The era of the "badass biker" is long gone, because everyone realizes how childish these people act on the road and off the road.

@Matt Bergman I had one for about 2 years. But let’s get to what’s really important here. Your extremely childish mind couldn’t think of anything original to say, so you decided to go with a mom joke. Also. I’d like to point out how hurt hurt you are since I pointed out how arrogant and ignorant some bikers are. So, what did we learn from this little boy? Don’t act like a child, and don’t make assumptions. Go to bed now.
