- In this tutorial I demonstrate how to make a monkey fist keychain. The monkey fist is an iconic nautical knot. Using the knot you can also produce a nice looking keychain, hence this tutorial :).
So in the video I show you how to tie the monkey fist knot and then finish it up into a keychain using two distinct methods (an easy method and one a bit more advanced).
Enjoy the video!
i have watched hundreds of you tube video's often for educational purposes, this is the absolute best. Makers of video's should watch this to see how it should be done. Thank you so much, now I'm off to make my very own monkeys fist knot.
You made a SPLWNDIDLY CLEAR demonstration - Thank you!!
Really handsome gift and well described. Thank you :)
This is the only monkey knot tutorial I will be able to use. Thank for an excellent video, and for not having music.
I don't know how I missed these tutorials. Very handsome looking fob.
Love the last knot to finish the keyfob. Very nice.
HOLY SMOKERS!!!!! That last finishing knot was a doosey!!!!!! You are an incredible instructor. What I wonder is how someone came up with these knots, they are so intricate. Thank you for showing how this is done.
One of the best tutorials I've ever seen! Congrats!
I'm not sure how I landed on your channel but it was a happy accident! I wish all tutorials were as well made and clear as yours. Thank you for sharing! Love both the fobs.
This will make great Father's Day gifts.
Oh thank goodness for your video. I FINALLY got one done and I’m happy to say it looks great. No other video was helping me. Thank you.
Awesome. This should keep the kids busy during the shut down. LOVE it!
Thank you for sharing your amazing knowledge and taking time to explain so perfectly.
Thanks. Lovely explications.
Thanks from Portugal 🇵🇹
So glad I found your channel.You make every step so very easy to follow,Thank you.
You are fantastic! I've made several of these to look like volleyballs for my daughter and niece and her friends. Wonderful tutorial!
Thanks, Mark, for your many tutorials! I have enjoyed learning skills by watching your videos.
I love how clearly you describe and show all the steps. 👌👍
These would make great x-mas gifts.
Mark, you are a great instructor. I tried this knot last week but couldn't get it because of distractions in the house. With peace and quiet, I mastered it. Thank you, it came out beautiful.
Thank you for your kind comment and especially for accomplishing this project!
It is not the easiest one out there, you really need some patience to do it.
Mark
Excelent lesson.
I enjoyed and still will enjoy very much.
Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge.

I love this knot, it looks very complicated to assemble but it needs full concentration,.. thank you for sharing i will attached a wooden crucifix at the end of the goucho key chain,.. Amazing,..!!! So beautiful,..
Nicely done video. Congrats Mark !
First of all design is amazing !!! Great keychain
Very well demonstrated and explained
Your tutorials are spot on.
I have seen a lot of tutorials, but this is far the best!! Very well done!!
Amazingly well explained. Thank you!
Hi Mark,
Your videos and explanations are the best on TH-cam!
You are very easy to follow even for a new person to this like me!
Thanks for the videos!

É verdade
Excellent videos as usual!
What an excellent work of demonstration.👍👍👍
Thank you a lot dear Mark!!
My heart jumps up with rejoice when I followed your illustration step by step and finally got it done beautifully.
Very well explained. Great video!!!
I’m just starting and am going to use a crochet hook to help feed the ends through when finishing.
p.s. I have challenged the gaucho knot and found it exceptionally beautiful. Feeling so thrilled ... Thank you again Mark!!
Thank you for your kind comments!
The gaucho knot is not easy to demonstrate, so I am really glad it worked for you! Tying a 2 strand gaucho is not a small accomplishment, you should be very proud!
Mark
Woww... Feeling incredible and amazed to have your recognition!
I must say your tutorials are clear, succinct and thorough. All credits go to you Mark! You're doing a great work making lives more beautiful. I applaud you!!
Awesome! I see, hear and feel your clarity, timing, patience and desire to excel at sharing your skills with others,. Thanks 🙏
That's a great job ! Congrats Mark !
Thank you for your kind compliment!
Mark
Nicely done video.
Thanks for this my friend. Great video with clear instructions.
Thank you very much for your comment!
These videos are hard to do because I never know if I explained everything well.
Thank you,
Mark
I have to try that as well to compare!
Happy tying!
Mark
great instructions, Thank you!
Very interesting,easy to follow. Thanks for a great video!
You are most welcome! Thank you for the kind comment!
Mark

Great job mate! Congrats!
Nice design and well explained👏👏👍

Thanks Mark. Great!
Beautiful cordage!
I liked it very much, thanks for the gaucho knot!! I would only suggest, (only because it would help me greatly), using two colors for the gaucho, it might make it easier to follow, that being said, thanks again, great knot.
I think that's why Mark used different coloured binding on each of the working ends.
I can’t tell if he’s flipping the center strings that are holding the monkey fist, so it appears that both strands are being fed through the same loops. Is that not correct?
I think that’s why the other commenter was saying to use different colors. Once it’s knotted it’s hard to tell where one strand begins and the other ends, and which is the right and left sides. And when the hands cover the work, one loses sight of the organization.
It would help if the center and the working ends were all different colors (paint or highlighter) so you could more easily follow the pattern of which cord gets looped over and under the other strands.
No entiendo tu lenguaje, pero tus manos hablan y explicas muy bien, no vi cómo sacaste la más pequeña (metes de vidrio) 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Thank you Jack and Mark the project is grate
I really enjoy your videos. Thanks!! I am having a lot of trouble with the Gaucho knot, its hard to see how to start the change of direction on the ends. Thanks again for all the videos!!
Yep, this is the bit I'm struggling with. It would be useful with different colour cords.
Cheers Mate! That’s Awesome.
Excellent demonstration. I made one while I was sitting watching you. I made one mistake and only have 3 rows on one side. But it still looks pretty good for a first time. Thank you. God bless you.
you are very nice teacher :)
Mark meu nome é Marcos,desculpe eu só pedi Oi nformacoes e esqueci de agradecer o meu muito obrigado mesmo você ensina com muita maestria e uma coisa difícil começa a parecer fácil ,incrivel 👏🏽👏🏽🤝🤝
Thanks Mark, I love your work, and I’ve been watching for a long time. I have to ask you, that marlin spike is one of the nicest I’ve seen, what brand is it. Not many high quality knife companies are making them anymore. The nicest one I’ve seen recently was a Camillus from the late 60’s with the box, when they were still being made in NY state. Beautiful knife, but it was over $200. It was new in box, never used. $200 is a bit steep though.
Do you make these and sell them please comment back would love to know I know I would buy 2 or 3 of them if the price is reasonable please let me know thank you for this video
Very good
Very educational
Muito lindo!!!!❤👏👏
Mark... how about a 4 strand Gaucho tutorial? I'm coming up empty handed looking for one. Cheers! I presume the Gaucho knot can be made longer by increasing the number of initial wraps around the core strands, as long as it's an odd number?
Great job
What Marlin spike is that? And where can I buy one?
Thanks Kevin
Colombia Bucaramanga 👏👏👏👏👏
Muy fácil y muy bellos lo boy .apracticar gracias de Sta Marta magdalena
How long is the rope between the clasp and the knot?
I like this knot very much but it seems like the marble could shatter after being dropped or cracked if hit hard enough. A razor sharp edge could result, not pleasant for the carrier or an unfortunate soul who pestered for a knot on the head.
A wood core throws quite well with light line attached to it.
Hello. Where can I by that kind of Rope? I see in Portugal but not the same as yours. I really like it!
Thanks!
GRACIAS !!!
very nice
brilliant to watch
really the best
Vc vende esse cordão ou compra no express quantos milímetro (mm)vc sugere para fazer essa bola pequena tipo bola de vídro ?
نشكركم علي الفكر الجميله
Sensacional,eu estou apaixonado por essa técnica com nós,sou do Brasil e não sei falar inglês,fui aprendendo só olhando seus maravilhosos gestos e paciência,estou louco para comprar esses fios,gostaria de saber se estou certo o Sr usou o fio de sisal número 3 mm e o fio de algodão de 3 mm também e uma bola de vidro daquelas que brincava quando criança aqui no Brasil pelo menos quem é da minha época (tenho 60 anos) a gente brincava,eu gostaria de comprar aquele gabarito de fazer pulseiras o Sr vende esses materiais ?,se não poderia me dar uma dica de onde compro o gabarito e o Marline Spike o senhor poderia me informar?
Hello, do anybody tryed to use Linen rope? can somebody tell how good and durable is Linen for such thing? Thank you!
Спасибо👍
very good demonstration but we don't know how to finish with the two working hand cord !!!
Very good ,bye !😍👏👏👏🌻🍃🕊️✨🇧🇷
Qual o comprimento da corda usada?
Hi Mark, Where can I buy cord like you are using in the video...
Hey there!
It is made by Mikko Snellman- you can contact him on FB. I am sure he sends it out to your part of the world.
Mark
If you can't find him on FB, this is his website - www.snellman.ax/
ummmmmm... i'm gonna go out on a limb here and say a hardware store? pure speculation of course i could be way off...
Can you please send a link for this rope that you are using? Or if anyone else knows exactly what it is called, I would appreciate. Thank You
Hey!
This rope is made by Mikko Snellman. I take a brief look at it here:

Mark
Thank you! Also i was watching another of your videos regarding the 6 loop key ring and I now cannot locate. Would you please send me link to your video on that. Thanks again.
Hi everyone, I just received the 3mm cotton cordage from paracord planet and it doesn't work. Does anyone know where I can get the 3 mm cordage like Mark shows in the video?
Stephen D www.snellman.ax/
Is that your mikko snellman rope?
Hey!
Ye this cord is from Mikko. Good eye :)
Mark
wait wait wait... i was making fun of this other dude for asking where he got this special rope - which looks exactly like a slightly "thinner" version of every piece of rope i've ever seen at every hardware store in america, or on every boat i've ever been on....
someone please educate me bc clearly the joke's on me... who the hell is mikko snellman, and what's so special about his rope?
@@brettgozdeck508 The rope may look like an ordinary piece of rope but if you work with it, you will notice the difference. You won´t find this hard lay on ropes in hardware store or any boat.
Blessings
Bonjour combien faut-il de cm de corde ? Merci
The gaucho knot was really hard to see each step. Had to give up on it...
what is that tool at 16.53 looks COOL >> ??
Hey! That is a marline spike. In this case it is a part of a knife. I really like it and it is quite affordable as well.
It is a great tool for tying knots, tightening and such.
Mark
wow... that is cool ... thank you i am going to get one ... :)
i found one on ebay and it's on the way ... thank you !!
روعه
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Olá,de quantos milímetros (mm)este paracord?
Eu disse paracord mas é outro material qual é e quantos milímetros?

Parece que está ensinando o segredo da eternidade. Aff que chatice esse falatório.
despite watching this many times it is impossible to follow. It needs coloured ropes to really understand the process. Shame as it is a lovely knot
