Hope you find my video useful. If so please consider supporting my endeavours by checking out my store. I have a small selection of hand made hard laid cord for sale. Traditional hard laid cord is perfect for this style of knotting. If you've not used it will change your knotting forever. bloodknot.bigcartel.com/
Ashley also calls it that name, trouble is he has 5 names for it. It’s nice to tie it in pairs like this. As you say the two colours work well and as a bonus it’s quicker to tie in pairs than it is to double it in the normal way. Thanks for watching
Thanks Philip, I appreciate you making the video :) I thought this was a diamond knot/lanyard knot. Can’t wait to get hold of that cordage . Cheers Arun
Yes this knot has many names it is more like a foot rope knot than a diamond knot but I know it is a Turks head made with 2 cords I can also make a 3 l X 8 b Turks head with 4 cords
Thanks for your kindness. I’m afraid I can’t remember if they have a name but I got them from a jewellery supply shop. These look similar MTHKLO Wire Cutter Precision Side Cutter Cutting Plier Micro Wire Cutter for Electronics Aluminum Jewelry(Black) www.amazon.com.au/dp/B083HCWKD9/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabc_EP5Q2A6AMF1ZHDFZBNYY?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
Just out of curiosity, what decorative knot would you use to tie the legs of a ditty bag lanyard to the ditty bag eyelets? I have thought about a Lanyard (Diamond) knot but then I'd have to sit down and figure out how to tie it with only access to one end.
Roger Banks hi Roger. Tough question because I’ve never made a ditty bag. I’ve seen them spliced and then a footrope tied with the tails. A multi turn Blood knot tied as a slip knot would also work,,, I’m a fan of the Blood knot. Otherwise post a question on one of the facebook groups you’ll get some good suggestions.
Hello Sir. What brand is the 600MilCord you are using? I have plenty of 550 ParaCord, but I like the smaller cord you are using. Where did you find it?
Chris Griffin hi. The cord is all made by me. There is a link to my store in the pinned comment. I don’t have a lot of stock as I’m currently to busy in my regular work to keep up supply. What I do have is there though. It’s hard laid cotton. Very different to paracord but great for this type of knotting.
I've reverted to shooting on my iPhone, seems to pick up the best audio for the least effort. I'm learning to edit on premier elements which is suitably easy for a newbie editor. The back drop is my wife's shawl which I use because under it is a hideous striped couch. Lot's of decisions being made in search of the easiest outcome. As to strobing no, not as yet. As I understand it strobing would be caused by a mismatch between shutter speed and lighting flicker. What light source do you use? Fluro tubes actually flicker a lot and can be problematic with motion cameras. You can't see it with the eye but cameras can pick it up.
I think that my issue is that the voltage here in the 🇬🇧 is 60 Hz and the shutter on my camera is 60 fps. I am seriously thinking of going for rechargeable LED lights to see if that cures it. I personally am always amazed on the great results that come from them. I personally use Shotcut, which is open source. If I had to pay for software, I could never afford the rope as well!!! 😉
does your camera have adjustable shutter speed. You could try a slower speed. My videos shot with the red shawl back ground are shot with natural light. By far the best scenario,, short of going into the studio that is. I have a diffusion sheet hung over a window, works a treat. Unfortunately the sun is not always shining, especially at night, very annoying.

Hi Phillip, like your work. Can you tell me what you put on the ends of the cords to keep them tidy for tucking? Doesnt look like electrical tape.
Smart finish. Nice and clean
Thanks 😊
Nice and clear, thank you!
Cool. I always heard it called a boatswain's pipe knot. Looks really good with the two contrasting collor cords.
Ashley also calls it that name, trouble is he has 5 names for it. It’s nice to tie it in pairs like this. As you say the two colours work well and as a bonus it’s quicker to tie in pairs than it is to double it in the normal way. Thanks for watching

Bird Ofsorts it is a diamond but I’ve always used the name Ashley gives first. He actually quotes 5 names for this knot.
Great instruction
Thank you 🙏 I appreciate your kindness

I wold love to buy some of your cordage, but the site doesn't seem to be up. Do you have it for sale?
Cool!! 😎😉✌
Bella e serena famiglia la tua Philip...; evviva il "comune" mondo dei nodi grazie ad Ashley...- 👋⚓
Thank you Maurizio. I'm afraid my Italian is pretty hopeless, but good enough to know you are being kind.
This is a 3l X 4b Turks head made with 2 cords
I’m never sure what technically constitutes a turks head. This is started with a Carrick bend and appears in Ashley’s book of Knots as #787
👍👍👍

Bonjour, quel diamètre de corde utilisez vous ? Merci !
Usually around 3mm but you could use any size
Merci pour cette réponse rapide

Whose upping their game then?? Sexy backdrop! Just out of interest, do you ever get strobbing if you use a light background?

Very clear and well paced but the music in the background is an annoying distraction.
I know, it was a mistake. Sorry
Please in french😟
Don’t speak French I’m afraid ☹️
