- How to Tie a Manrope Stopper Knot - a Decorative Stopper Knot for Your Rope or Paracord.
Basically the knot is tied with a wall knot and then a crown knot and the lines are doubled to produce a decorative stopper knot. In this tutorial I have tied the Manrope Knot using 3 lengths of synthetic cord for demonstration purposes only. This knot can be tied with three or more cords in natural rope or paracord. Once complete the Manrope knot makes a large stopper knot or a rather fancy knot for the end of a lanyard.
Although this tutorial shows the Manrope Knot being made with 3 strands, more strands can be used, using the same principle.
Sometimes called the Tack Knot, or Double Wall and Crown.
The Manrope Knot is often used at the end of ropes on either side of gangways on ships.These knots are also often seen on the end of patio rope railings or on stairs where a rope bannister has been used. In this case the Manrope knot is not only decorative but also prevents the rope from sliding out of the metal or wooden eye.

VERY Very helpful . . . thanks !
what do you plan for this knot?
Ow yeah!!! I'v been looping for this knot for so long!!! Tried myself some selfmade knots to make a crown on a 3 stranded backsplice. Just didnt look good.
Didnt know the name of such a knot and ended up at diamont knots where the rope continues in the same direction.
This is exactly what i needed!!!
I'm splicing a 3 stranded rope halter for my GF's pony.
This knot i can use to fit through an eyesplice to lock it off.
Brilliant! YES 👏
Do you have plans for this one?
I love this Manrope stopper, very useful and pretty too !
It really does look good at the end of a rope. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.
I have not knotted this one, but I may give it a try following your detailed instructions. Thank you Johnny
With this one and the footrope knot, I made up a four strand length of rope to practice it with, and it took a lot of practise for me. Here is the footrope if you have not seen that one: th-cam.com/video/N3WWzo5AQ6s/w-d-xo.html
Cheers Mate!
Great video thank you
John, your demonstrations are always so easy to follow.
That is very kind of you Gary. Do you have any work that you can show me, just love to see other peoples work. You can drag and drop photos here: goo.gl/mQgf8E
THANK YOU 😊 finally ,,,,,,, 😊 An understanding way to teach 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Ulla. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
I am almost done with a key fob but I didn't know which knot to use to end it. Now I do. Thanks a bunch. I'll send you pictures.
Brilliant, let me know when you post the photo?
These are great I've tried several from the Ashley book & Marlin spike books. The diagrams can be hard to follow. But your explanations while you're doing them works a charm. This particular knot is used a lot on the bolt (piece through the cleat) for a sea chest becket. Which is what my goal is to tie a respectable becket for a sea chest. Thanks
Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. I have made many a bell rope, cat of nine tails and ditty bag handles, but never a chest becket. I have heard though, if you are making a chest becket, you should do each section in pairs. In other words whatever you do to one handle, you then do exactly the same on the second handle. This way you end up with a perfect matched pair. Good luck on making your handles.
Great job taking what seems like a confusing knot and making it easy.
Glad it was helpful!
Very impressive. Haven't found any very useful books on the subject. Your video was enlightening. Thank you.
If you are looking for a good book packed with projects, then I recommend you get a copy of Des Pawson's book: igkt-solent.co.uk/books/
Great stuff - I finally managed to make one :-D Thanks for sharing your knowledge and skills!
very informative.TXS
Love your vídeos
Yes, they are the best 😀 Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Very nice job explaining what needs to be done .
Glad that you liked it, thanks for taking the time to leave a comment. Are you a knotter?
Great video - need to make one for my parent's banister rope, ideal! I like the fact you can work it back up the rope to tension it once it's laid.
Are you able to show me any of your work, as I do love to see other people knot-craft? You can drag and drop a photo here, please: goo.gl/mQgf8E
Done :-). Rope was a bit hairy and prone to unravel but I did my best and 'customer' was happy :-)
This tutorial was exactly what I was looking for and was so clear anyone can follow it. Thank you!!
What are you making to need one of these?
@@KnottingKnots My daughter needed a cord belt for a costume for a comic con. Of course, the costume was over the top and every detail attended to. With the tutorial, I was able to add the large knots to the ends of her cord belt. She was thrilled.
@@bethstaudt1913 You going to take up decorative knotting now? 😉 😉 😉
@@sheilaportman2515 Is this a message in Morse code?
Great video, thank you!
(I winced every time your hand was close to that knife blade.)
Yes, my knives are rather sharp! Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
A great video of making a manrope knot👌
Is it possible to tie a manrope knot but have the ends come out the top instead of the bottom, to make a tassel?
I think the Footrope Knot is what you are looking for: th-cam.com/video/N3WWzo5AQ6s/w-d-xo.html
@@KnottingKnots Thanks for the link👍 Have watched the video, love the size of the 4 strand knot. As I only have three strand the knot is considerably smaller. Is it possible to increase the size of the knot with extra turns making three instead of two, or is that not possible?
If so how do you do it?
Sorry to be a pain, your videos are brilliant and the best I've seen👌👍
I understand using the synthetic rope makes it easy to demonstrate on a video. However, I'm using synthetic hemp rope which is the most common decorative rope used for hand rails and the man rope knot stopper. This is an entirely different beast. First of all you have to unravel the three strand about 2-3 feet to have enough to create the knot. The multi strand fibres easily loosen and the whole thing can become a confusing nightmare very quickly. Can you recommend/demonstrate something/way to keep the fibres together and to identify the individual strands as you progress through the knot. Synthetic 30mm hemp rope is not cheap. I've just wrecked 3 feet of a 10 yard piece which has now shortened my rope too much to be of any use for my hand rail project. Watching your video gave me misguided confidence that I could make this decorative knot.
Might be too late here, and possibly also misunderstand what you need. But what you could try is after unraveling the three strands of the rope, tape each end up with some painters tape or electrical tape. Kind of like the end of a shoelace. That should keep the strands together and make it a bit easier to thread through the knot as you go.
I've found this Manrope knot just a. little too late. I have made a bell rope using two strands each of red white and blue paracord. I doubled each and plaited a tri-round pull. I needed this knot the have on the end. Thanks for help wonderful help. :)
If you are like me, you will have loads of items laying around that you have made. I get the feeling you will be making more in the future!! Do you have a picture of your work on-line?
Johnny Debt No, I dont have one online, sorry.
Hey not a problem, if you want I have set up an account for viewers work here:💥 goo.gl/photos/tERae6pLZH6TezcD6 Feel free to add a picture?
Used the "Monkey Fist" knot as an "End Knot" for years, but needed something for a Older Person's grip without a core object that a {Grand Child} child would not find a way to swallow if it came loose. You made it look easy, so now an "Old Dog" has a "New Trick." Thanks
Agree it would have been easier to follow with three different color ropes as I am using 1-1/2" three strand rope. Helpful video just the same.
We used this rope for the gang way of the ship
Just makes everything look smarter!!
Excellent tutorial, thank you. What happens next though, to hide the ends to be sure the whole thing won't unravel is the burning question???
Often this is used as decoration on the end of a rope on say, a rope stair rail. The idea is that you make the knot nice and tight, then cut the loose ends flush under the knot and ten tuck any scraggly bits into the knot.
Basic but very helpful. Thank you for sharing! Evertyhing is easy if you know how to do it .
Good demonstration, I'm confident I can tie that knot now. It became a little confusing as you began following strands through, I didn't feel like you have a clear indication of which side of the strand you wanted to follow so the instruction to 'just uncross them' was a little frustrating. Also, would have liked to see the knot tied on a twisted rope that extended past your constrictor knot. Good work laying up your own for the demonstration. If you'd used three separate colored strands, it may have added some appeal for anyone who was unfamiliar with knotting.
Hope that was constructive. This is the first time I've seen your videos, I'll be looking out for more. Keep it up.
First a wall, then a crown, then tuck up, then tuck down.
Yep, that's the saying.............. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Nice job on the video. Question: Can you please tell us what kind of knife you showed in this video? Thanks.
I think the knife that you are referring to is a Lansky World Legal. You can find more info on the knives I use here: igkt-solent.co.uk/supplies/
high standard as usual, have you thought of doing each strand in a different colour so people can see it through the knot?
As they said in pots Blake in the old days of black and white TV the brown is the lighter grey one.
Wooo, now you are showing your age, trouble is that I remember that too. Thanks for leaving a comment, they all help me to make things a bit better. Are you also a knotter?
yeah doing a bit with paracord not looking the finishing showing on them (cut and burn). one of my first was a light pull with miniture light houses and beach huts from bridlington,where saw trailer full of rope being towed off the harbour as I sat down at the cafe,
With the cut and burn method, I believe if you have the right colour sharpie, it covers all sins. Personally I am not a fan of cut and burn, if I can I always try to tuck ends away neatly. Got any samples of work on-line, would love to see it?
nicely done. where did you find your fid? I see a lot of nice ones , they mention where they got them, but you never seem to be able to find them.
Thanks for popping over and leaving a comment. I appreciate comments as they help me to improve my channel. Yes, sometimes getting hold of the gear is just as hard as getting hold of good quality cord. In order to give you more information, what country are you in?
Us...the other side of the pond.
Are you on Facebook, if so I could link you with some people who ship to the States or I could try and dig out a contact of mine who is in the States?
Johnny Debt....no sir, I'm not.
I do know that Mikko does some fine tools and does ship to the US. If you take a look at this video it will link to his website: th-cam.com/video/DVBogjW6kxo/w-d-xo.html
very nice... thank you. possibly slightly clearer if you had a standing piece instead of simulating it?
Yes, I think this is going to be one of those knots that I revisit. It has been suggested also using three colours also. There again I could also do one with an actual piece of rope, will will also show additional problems that people will have to deal with. Are you a knotter?
HAHA VERY FUNNY
What was funny?
Is it usefull for a soft shackle?
I personally use either the single or the double Bosun's Call Lanyard Knot: th-cam.com/video/ROL2a8TkB0E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=kiNVGMbHliYyrOFh Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Hello Johnny, i´m from northern germany and like to fellow your explanation about the different knots. Please could your tell the length off the ropes allso?
Hello Germany, in future videos, I will put more info on length of cordage used. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
useful information would be the length of rope required to tie the knot relative to diameter/circumference of the rope being used. Now on my 3rd attempt to have long enough tails.
Hi Jim,
Did my first attempt last night: started with 40cm on a 2cm thick, 3 strand cord. At the end 10 to 12cm exces was left.
You explain things in a way that even this old man can understand, thank you.
Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated.
Can a man rope knot be mad with more than 4 strands?
I do not see why not, as it is only really a wall and then a crown doubled. Thanks for taking the time to view and also make a comment, very much appreciated. I just had to edit this as I recall that you once showed me some nice mats, loved them!
Have you ever had to used a Manrope knot as a stopper or decorative lanyard knot?
Now I have, I use it to stop the loop on the line from sliding open for our fenders. Works perfectly and looks smart. Thanks for your time teaching us all.
OOPS that's my wife's signature LOL I'm Mike Surber
How do you determine how much rope to untwist for the knot?
I wish I could give you an exact answer............. and I am sure that somewhere there is one. As you make a few decorative knots, you just learn how much rope you need. Not just for making the knot, but also enough length to swing off the ends to make it really tight, before cutting them off.
@@KnottingKnots Thank you
very nice vid indeed. I'm very srry for not making another vid but my parents keep making me study so I can't do one but in a few days or so I will have some exam week things at my school so when I'm not at school I'll make vids ok I'll try and do to a day
Ah yes, school can so get in the way of doing other things ;-) Your parents are right though. BTW, what country are you in?
Canada u
UK Mate, just link up with that FB link I gave and we can chat there.
He speaks like a vicar..
anything but a vicar...................... that is the worst insult ever!!!
@@KnottingKnots it was meant as a compliment. You have a natural passion for what you are sharing.😁
@@duanedrummond2685 No problem, to me, vicars are predators. ;-) Good of you to pop by and leave a comment.
Love the video. I would stop flashing the knife around, though. It's distracting.
Thanks for popping over and leaving a comment. Just had to watch my own video to see what you mean. Yep, it is a bit a of a cleaver to be throwing it around the screen. End result, I agree with you!!! Are you personally a knotter?
Johnny Debt I don't know if I may call myself a knotter. I regularly tie turks head knots and variations around walking sticks. Some dog collars, bracelets and keyfobs. Got infected with the paracord virus
Paracord has some wonderful colours and is also very easy to work with, I can see why you got hooked on the stuff. I love to see other peoples work, do you have a link to somewhere that I can see your work?
Johnny Debt I love your videos! I have learned so much from them! You take the time to explain each step and you make a complicated knot seem not so complicated because of this! Thank you for sharing with us!
Thanks for taking the time to visit and leave a comment. Are you a knotter?
For an extra manly Manrope knot, cover the strands in canvas first.
imgur.com/gallery/CAWG7
Yes, it certainly does look good when it is done like that, a future video me thinks. Is that a picture of yours by any chance?
Johnny Debt Yeah, that is from my latest chest becket project. The canvas covered Manrope knots will eventually get a coat of white paint.
I would be interested to see you make videos on canvas work. I've made a couple of simple ditty bags lately but they are fairly plain. I can't seem to get the hitched eyelets to turn out nice.
Really impressed with that one. Something I have not yet made. In the past I would not do a bell rope till I had a bell. Got a real heavy one a few years ago, so also have a few bell ropes now. Must look out for a chest!! If I go back to that site will I find other work you have done?
Johnny Debt Yeah, both my imgur and Flickr flic.kr/p/SBhdeG pages have various knotting projects in various stages of completion randomly interspersed.
You don't have to have a chest to make a chest becket. Do you have a door? They make great door knockers.
Just saw the Alliance, made me feel like I want to get back to sea again!!!
I have tied many manrope knots,yours was somewhat clumsy ,if you were to use a proper rope rather the 3 strands it would have been better .I don't agree with you on the fact that a crown knot is an upside down wall knot because they rotate in different directions as a crown knot goes anticlockwise but a wall knot goes clockwise .
Both Crown knots and Wall knots can be tied in any direction. Crown knots and Wall knots are inversely related to each other. One can be turned into another by inverting the stem (which also changes the direction). I have a video that illustrates this which you might find interesting. See the section titled: Comparing Wall Knots to Crown Knots. th-cam.com/play/PLac0kf1v9OuAIbP8LJNAUpwQZ-jg9xnnL.html
You need a lot of imagination for this. Why not have enough and three strand to show this properly.
