I use crochet needles for spikes when doing knot work. A cheap set will range in diameter for different spikes but then they also have hooks on them for pulling your cords through small openings. I first learned these knots from JD at TyingItAllTogether, a true master of para-cord knotting.

Wow! Thank you. Thank you very much. The Turk's head knot is a tricky one for sure, and I always struggled tying them around a dowel. I'm happy to say never again! Tying around my hand was so much more intuitive for me I nailed it first try! I finally can add turk's head to my list of working knots.

Thanks for the video, I volunteered to make some paddles (only 10) for our Mess to save some money (about $70.00 a paddle) I used your turks head with an "Admiral's" wrap in the middle. I'll do a video on it later if our Mess approves the finished product and I'll reference your video for sure. Sub'd, Hooyah!

Thank you so much for the video. FYI sometimes your work is off camera, other times all we see is the back of your hand. Anyway your video is great, I learned a lot. Thank you.

Just a tip, if you don't want to tighten it too hard do it comfortably then put it in boiling water for about 15-20 seconds, it will shrink the paracord making it tighter

My brother in law just brought me a machete he found when he was in afghanistan, the handle was wrapped with the spiral weave and im glad i found this. Its cool to see how it was done, he also told me about an 8 foot pole in the middle of his base that was wrapped to the top in that same weave lol

Thanks for the video. I plan on using this technique on my walking stick and your video as a guide. Well done.

I've wanted to wrap the handle of my Wood Splitting Maul for a long time. This was Super Helpful!!

Thanks man! I wrapped the hilt of a paracord whip I made and thanks to you it came out perfect!

Two hours ago I just used this technique as my first ever coxcombing on a boat. I cut a 15' piece for a narrower (than the paddle) grab rail, and ... that wasn't quite enough. I'll use 30 feet the next time.
Would like to see an update to this same technique, but how to them join additional pieces of cord or rope together if we only work with manageable lengths (while maintaining the tightness and pattern), or how best to work with a much longer length.

Wow. Excellent video! The turks head will take me about 50xs.

If I may Suggest...
The first few wraps - maybe place them over the initial short working end.. so there will be no need to cut that end ..

Just a thought..
