THANKS COOP! Your attention to detail is so great when it comes to classroom teaching when there's no point for questions! You answer them before theyre asked.
Long time fan of your work. I've probably watched everyone of your paracord bracelets at least once, most twice! I really, really like the idea of showing the finished bracelet right at the start of a video. It helps the viewer to determine if they are looking at the right video and doesn't waste their time trying to figure out what the craftsman is trying to do. Thanks for doing that this time and I hope that's a part of all your future videos.
Now that i did two of these in a row, this weave is a whole lot more similar to the classic "Fishtail" pattern than it is to the Snake Knot. In fact, it IS the Fishtail stitch with "a twist", quite literally, between stitches!
Its amazing how just a slight modification on another design can produce such a dramatically different bracelet. All this is, is a modified fishtail. LOVE IT!! Thanks JD for the design and Thanks Coop for the vid!!
Thanks, J.D. Lenzen for the pattern, thanks, MrCoop for this tutorial. And you're right, the snake knot is a pain but I like it. This tut solves the problem. Thanks again.
VARIATION - Althought the initial loops at beginning are an interesting and useful way to hold things down, in this case, it only adds bulk. If you start the weave as if you were doing a "fishtail" pattern, the cords go down and up to cross and back down between each other anyway, it is easy to push up and snug tight and start the V pattern with the very first stitch. Know what I mean? If not, skip the loopy thing at the beginning and just do what you do down the entire length and you'll see what i mean!
I may just be picky, Coop, but I reckon that if you're going to finish your bracelet with two Solomon bars you should start it the same way so that the ends are as near identical as possible. That's just me though, picky as I said. :)
I just stumbled across your videos. I normally watch the bored paracord videos and to be frank, and this is not a slam to other sites but I can not bare the videos with just music and not solid verbal instruction.
i'm with you, dude, with the sleepy-time vids with just music and no talk!! it's torture! if i want to meditate, it won't be while i'm making a bracelet!

thank you Mr. Coop I would love to put other JD's braclet on buckle,i already did the viceroy snake nut with loop and nut by JD i am now going to make it with buckles. again thank you

I love the knot as well. Just made two bracelets!
thanks Coop, love this one, much thinner than regular snake knot, and thanks for adapting J.D.'s ball and loop, cuz i'm a buckle gal

Again, like those colors!
Will give it a go, also a fan of the snake knot.

you are right Coop, i went and watched your snake knot, this new one is soooooo much easier
I could never figure out the snake knot. Thanks so much for this one!!!

Super 👍🇹🇷🇹🇷🇹🇷
i like your way of making the knot way faster but his is just as good
what is the length of the cords you used ?? thanks
Thank you for this sir! I also loved the Snake Knot but I also like using buckles. Thumbs up! ;)

Awsome video Coop. Where did you get that lighter?

cool, was wandering how to tie this knot with a jig. I just don't like the square knot at the end, could there be a better way to finish it off ?
Mark Mondaini yes there is, you can just tie a regular knot at the end (in the proper fashion)
Thanks!
Hey Coop! What's the ratio of feet of cord per inches of bracelet? I tie my stuff pretty tight. Thx!

MrCoop Sorry. I've been out of pocket for quite a while and getting back into the groove.
+Jack Reacher 👍👍

The picture of the bracelet is a fish tail weave
No it isn't. If you watched the video you would know it isn't a fishtail.
