What a super nice way to be able to tighten up the top of a project! It looks so much like your Ranger bead, But with a whole different application. Thank you so much!

[@jeanluc1134]

Clever ! Interesting! Well explained! Thank you !

[@bikinbeyondboundaries4716]

That's a nice little tip. Thank you for that.....

[@michaelmoser7892]

Dude you are the bomb that dog bone button is my go-to and your videos are slow and very easy to follow genius pure genius you got me back into paracord tying entertaining me when I was in Fort McMurray and I tied a lot of it thank you haven't done it since I was a child and now I'm in my fifties making some really cool stuff keep up the good work cheers

[@survivalist9818]

Excellent job and well explained. Thank you

[@RaniTanny]

Learned so much from you!! Thank you❤❤ You had ONE video where you started a knot on your finger (of left hand). What I remember is this: Rope was on top of finger... Looped around behind and back over to front- on left side loop Wrapped around again Than tread it thru the outer left loop. I can't figure out what that knit is called- or which video it was

[@stephanddd]

Great idea, thank you! This can be used in so so many ways.

Great video, I used the technique for making halyards for my boat, but used a Brummel lock to finish it and I pull a small soft shackle into the loop that attaches to my sail.

[@tomthompson7400]

the adjustable loop is fantastic , makes a great , handy ,fast lanyard for my dive computer

[@updownstate]

So relaxing.

[@milouschmidt]

brilliant thank you for a great and clear lesson❤

[@tjs9503]

Good tutorial-very helpful. It appears to be a process that would work well looping it through a lanyard hole toward the end of the process, so it’s on the gear (like a knife) when you complete the knot. Thank you.

[@OleOdense]

Great video, and very well explained :)

[@garycort7997]

[@intoxyc8me]

made this with 4 strands on key fob for the finishing knots

[@kevinoday783]

I really liked your video. If this is the cheater's way of tying a diamond knot ,cheater's never prosper. You should check other ways of tying a diamond knot. Your way is quite a bit harder than the diamond knot that I tie. I really do like your video. thanx.

[@edgardriba7513]

Thanks for your videos. I have a question/request. For a project I need the diamond knot but as a button. Similar to what you did here, but without the loop on top of it. I mean a diamond knot with just the two lose strands underneath it…. Is this possible?

[@user-rk4nx1dx1l]

You want to look up the actual diamond crown knot i think (often listed as the lanyard knot), the strands both come out the same place, can be made with loop or ''knot''(haha!) Not sure if this guy (Whyknot) has a vid of that, as just come across him . Good stuff this man.

[@TreeCamper]

So zen.

[@squirrelhillfarm9070]

Looks like a hackamore knot or a turkshead

[@selenes1654]

This was great for tying something nice so my hoodie strings wouldn't pull through!

[@sewbeeit8809]

What length of cord is used in the video?

[@Cous1nJack]

But it makes a running loop so your tool drops off

Konrad Ritter hardly fail safe. Knife lanyard knot is a one ender intended for the purpose.

[@rays5163]

If you're putting it on a knife lanyard, you have access to both ends. Just use a normal diamond knot. This is if you have one working end.

[@raeannuria5691]

Isn't that a Celtic button knot?

[@SamGGreenberg]

This. It's a bad sign when the "sneaky trick" also changes the number of loops and ends coming out of the knot. :)

[@rays5163]

Yes. that is literally the first step.

[@stoneblue1795]

I got nothing. Just me.

[@huangzb8060]

This is a Chinese button knot.

[@rays5163]

Did everyone watch this video on mute? Half the comments are literally "isn't this a button/Turk's head?". Yes, he literally says that like 10 seconds in and why it's

[@rays5163]

"cheating"

[@tablet9076]

Ahhhhgh...Jumps off the roof...

[@KenGray]

Ha... Yep that's cheating 80D

[@bowlineobama]

That's not a true diamond knot.
