Thanks for the lesson. Inspires me to make do some rope work instead of whittling.

There is nothing better than a good quality fid that fits snuggly in your hand.

Beautiful knot work. Thanks for the info on different fid types.

Hi, great video. The tool that you introduce at 5:29 looks like it may by a burnisher which are used for rolling an edge on a card scraper for use in woodwork finishing. Great multi use tool. Thanks.

Just found a very old brass fid (I think) metal detecting Waquoit Bay, about 6" long with a small hole thru it near the head, which is tapered too. I have a photo of it too.

I want to thank you for introducing me to knotting. I bought your dvd years ago and I have had a great time learning and doing knotting. Are u going to ever do a dvd on decorating bottles and jugs?

Great video! ( was that a blood stain on your stanley pick? lol)

I got a really nice fid at an antique store for $25. And yeah that sucker is too big to use but it really is pretty.
